We're a quality-focused sourdough bakery in Northcote seeking an experienced baker to play a key role in our production. This is a hands-on position for someone confident in fermentation, dough handling, and maintaining consistency at scale, within a small, skilled team.

  • High-quality sourdough program - strong focus on fermentation, consistency, and detail
  • Small, tight-knit team - collaborative, low-ego environment with high standards, think fast and the furious but covered in flour.
  • Real input into the bake - opportunity to refine processes and contribute to the bread program and beyond.

We’re a small, quality-driven bakery in Northcote with a strong focus on well-made bread, thoughtful products, and a constantly evolving offering.

We’re looking for an experienced baker to take on a key role within the team, someone who values consistency, attention to detail, and takes real pride in their work.

The role:

  • Early(ish) starts (approx. 4:30–5:00am)

  • 4 day weeks (including at least one weekend day)

  • Hands-on across mixing, shaping and baking

  • Involvement in savoury prep and components beyond the bread

  • Opportunity to contribute to new products and recipe development

  • Helping maintain consistency and flow across the bake

We’re looking for someone who:

  • Has solid experience working with sourdough in a production environment

  • Works cleanly, efficiently, and without needing their hand held

  • Has good instincts on the bench and can make calls when needed

  • Takes pride in consistency, detail, and well-run systems

  • Is interested in contributing ideas (and seeing them through)

What we offer:

  • A stable, long-term role in a focused, quality-first environment

  • A small, tight-knit team who care about what they’re doing (and each other, most of the time)

  • Genuine input into products, systems, and how things run

  • Staff perks and a supportive workplace

If this sounds like your kind of thing, send through a bit about your experience and a resume.
