Seasonal Team Member

Bruegger's Bagels is a well-established bakery brand known for its commitment to traditional New York-style bagels crafted with care and quality. With over 35 years of experience in kettle cooking bagels, Bruegger's Bagels has built a reputation for serving genuine, flavorful bagels paired with authentic made-in-Vermont cream cheese. The company prides itself not only on the quality of its food but also on fostering a positive work environment that emphasizes work-life balance. Unlike many food service establishments, Bruegger's stores close early at 2 pm, allowing employees to enjoy their evenings and personal moments without the hassle of late or night shifts. This unique schedule supports employees in maintaining a healthy balance between their professional and personal lives, making it an attractive workplace for individuals seeking flexible daily routines.

This role is for Seasonal Team Members who are a crucial part of the Bruegger's Bagels experience. Seasonal Team Members play a direct role in delivering excellent guest service by ensuring every customer feels warmly welcomed from the moment they enter the store. As brand ambassadors, team members are expected to create a positive atmosphere and promote the Bruegger's brand through their enthusiasm and service quality. Their daily responsibilities include ensuring the quality of food and beverages, maintaining a clean and safe store environment, and managing the fast-paced demands of a busy bakery setting. The position is designed for individuals eager to work hard, enjoy a dynamic environment, and bring joy to guests through genuine interactions and excellent service.

Working at Bruegger's Bagels offers several benefits, particularly suited for students or individuals looking for summer employment. The flexible schedule allows team members to make the most of their summer while balancing other responsibilities. They will never be required to work past 3 pm, guaranteeing no evening or night shifts, which is ideal for those with daytime commitments. In addition to competitive pay of $14.00 to $21.00 per hour, employees are also eligible for cash and credit card tips, boosting their overall earnings. Seasonal roles also carry the possibility of transitioning into permanent positions, providing long-term career opportunities within the company.

The position demands physical activity including sitting, standing, bending, lifting, and moving intermittently during working hours, with accommodations available as needed. It requires individuals who can multitask effectively and thrive in a fast-paced environment. While prior experience in restaurants, retail, or guest service is beneficial, it is not a strict requirement, making this an accessible opportunity for many. Scheduling needs are subject to variation depending on business demands, including early morning shifts as early as 3 am and working on weekends.

Bruegger's Bagels embraces an inclusive and equal opportunity employment policy, ensuring fair treatment regardless of race, ethnicity, gender identity, sexual orientation, and other protected characteristics. Employment decisions are solely based on qualifications, and the company is committed to maintaining a respectful and supportive workplace for all employees.
