Job Description

Maman is a distinguished French bakery, café, and lifestyle brand that was founded in 2014 by Elisa Marshall and Benjamin Sormonte. With a presence that spans across North America and Canada, Maman has established itself as a beloved destination known for its dedication to quality, tradition, and a warm, inviting atmosphere. Drawing inspiration from cherished family traditions, Maman carefully crafts a variety of baked goods using the highest quality ingredients. Among its offerings, their famous nutty chocolate chip cookie has garnered a loyal following, representing the brand's commitment to exceptional taste and craftsmanship. Alongside their renowned pastries, Maman serves an array of coffee selections, fresh breakfast options, hearty salads, sandwiches, and savory quiches, all designed to satisfy a range of palates and preferences.

In addition to being a café and bakery, Maman also functions as a lifestyle brand that hosts intimate events and partners with prominent companies for special brand activations. Their event services include catering for baby showers, birthday parties, engagements, and other memorable occasions, helping customers create meaningful and beautiful memories. The founders further extended the brand's influence by authoring "Maman: The Cookbook," released in September 2021, which celebrates their culinary philosophy and shares beloved recipes with a broader audience.

We are currently seeking a porter to join the Maman team. This role is ideal for individuals who are passionate about food, beverages, and delivering outstanding customer service. A love for cookies is a welcomed trait, as is a willingness to support colleagues and foster a positive team environment. The porter will play a crucial role in maintaining cleanliness and organization in the kitchen and back-of-house (BOH) areas, ensuring that the operation runs smoothly during both busy and slower periods. This position requires proactive attention to detail, a readiness to assist other team members, and a commitment to upholding Maman’s high standards of safety and quality.

This employment opportunity offers a flexible schedule that includes working weekends, holidays, and special events. The role is based at any of Maman’s locations, and candidates are encouraged to mention their preferred location during the interview process to help accommodate placement. As part of Maman’s growing company, the porter will receive competitive compensation starting at minimum wage, along with healthcare benefits and additional perks for employees who consistently demonstrate dedication to the brand's values.

In summary, joining Maman as a porter means becoming part of a fast-growing company that values hard work, collaboration, and excellence. The ideal candidate will enjoy a supportive learning environment with opportunities to expand their skills and progress within the organization. Maman fosters a culture where every team member contributes to creating memorable experiences for customers, making this role both meaningful and rewarding.
