Kitchen Lead – Bakehouse on Somerville

Location: Winthrop, WA
Employment Type: Full-time, Tuesday to Saturday, approx. 6:00am–2:00pm

Bakehouse on Somerville is a busy, community-loved bakery in Winthrop, serving fresh food, great coffee and good vibes every day.

As we continue to grow, we’re looking for a reliable, organised and self-motivated Kitchen Lead to take ownership of our kitchen operations. This is currently a standalone role, so we need someone who can manage their own time, follow daily prep lists, keep things running smoothly and make sure the front-of-house team has what they need for a great day.

This isn’t just a behind-the-scenes role — you’ll be part of the flow of the whole shop!

What you’ll be doing:

- Preparing toasties, filled rolls, quiches and hot food

- Prepping ingredients and keeping production flowing throughout the day

- Jumping in to support service when needed — taking orders, handing out food and helping keep things moving

- Managing salad bar ingredients and pie stock levels

- Handling Uber Eats, DoorDash and in-store food orders during your shift

- Assisting with catering orders and helping grow this side of the business

- Ordering kitchen stock, monitoring inventory and putting away deliveries





- Maintaining food safety standards, including temp checks, labelling and correct storage

- Keeping the kitchen clean, organised and stocked

- Continuously improving systems and routines as the business grows

About you:

- Experience in a commercial kitchen, café, bakery or similar food prep environment

- Happy to jump in and help wherever needed — not just stay in the kitchen

- Reliable, organised and able to work independently

- Confident following checklists, prep sheets and daily routines

- Takes pride in a clean, well-run workspace

- Has a Food Safety Supervisor or Food Handlers certificate (or willing to obtain one)

- Available Tuesday to Saturday, approx. 6:00am–2:00pm

Why join us?

- Daytime hours — no late nights

- A secure, full-time role

- The opportunity to take ownership of a key part of the business

- Room to grow as we expand

- Friendly, community-focused bakery with a supportive team

Please apply via SEEK with your resume and a short cover letter telling us:

- Your experience in a kitchen or café

- A role where you’ve worked independently or managed your own section

- And a fun fact about yourself
