Ket Baker Pty Ltd Trading as KET BAKER is looking for experienced BAKERS for our venue at WALLINGTON on the Bellarine Peninsula in Victoria.

We’re an artisan bakery, with a big heart, located on the beautiful Bellarine Peninsula.

People seek us out for our 100% sourdough croissants, breads and small batch pastries that deliver the unmistakable Ket Baker hit.

Handcrafted, every croissant we make, takes five days to develop the intense flavour profile and texture that we’re known for. And as in nature, each croissant is unique. Each one takes on the natural elements of our shed kitchen – our sourdough culture, our weather, our moods!

Our small batch pastries feature local fruit, veg and produce (like goat’s cheese from Drysdale Cheeses and Lard Ass butter) alongside some of the world’s best Belgian chocolate.

And our bread? It’s what drives us. We believe people should be able to eat delicious and nutritious bread every day. Bread that you’ll love and that will love you (and your guts) back.

We’ve been baking on the Bellarine since 2016, and love being part of this small, dynamic, supportive community.

To be considered for the role you need to have a relevant qualification or at least 3 years' experience in a similar position.
