About the role

You'll run the Saturday session of a community bakery program where young people with disability get their first paid work experience. You'll be on the floor alongside four to six participants, breaking recipes into achievable steps, adjusting on the fly when a task isn't landing, and reading the room when someone's had enough. You'll direct the volunteers rostered on and hold food safety and allergen controls without exception. There's no manager standing behind you during the session — you'll make the calls. The other seven hours are yours to schedule during the week for preparation, progress notes, participant reviews, and conversations with families and support coordinators.
