Crafers Bakehouse is a busy, family-owned bakery in the Adelaide Hills, producing a wide range of breads, pastries, pies, sweets, slices and other baked goods.

We’re looking for an experienced Baker / Pastry Cook to join our production team.

This is a hands-on production role with plenty of variety. We’re looking for a capable all-rounder who enjoys the craft of baking, can work confidently and independently, and is happy to move between different areas of production depending on what needs to be done.

You’ll work across a broad range of bakery production, including:

- Bread and dough production; mixing, shaping, proving and baking
- Pastry production
- Pies and savoury products
- Cakes, sweets and slices
- Seasonal and specialty products
- Finishing and preparing products for sale
- Working to daily production requirements and ensuring products are completed efficiently and on time
- Maintaining consistency, quality and presentation
- Supporting and providing guidance to apprentices and less experienced team members
- Maintaining a clean, organised and food-safe production environment
- Pitching in across the bakery when required

This is a hands-on role. We’re looking for someone who wants to bake and be an active part of production. Ideally, you will:
- Be a qualified Baker, Pastry Cook or have equivalent commercial bakery experience
- Have strong hands-on baking skills
- Have experience across both bread and pastry production, or be willing and capable of working across both
- Be confident working independently without requiring constant supervision
- Be reliable,



organised and able to work efficiently in a busy production environment
- Have a strong eye for quality and consistency
- Be willing to share your knowledge and support apprentices and junior team members
- Have a flexible approach and be happy to work across different areas of production as required
- Communicate well and enjoy being part of a close-knit team

You don’t need to be an expert in every product we make. Attitude, versatility and a willingness to work across different areas of the bakery are important to us. This is a full-time role working 38 hours per week across our six-day production roster, Tuesday to Sunday.

Bakery life means early mornings, and we’re looking for someone who has the flexibility to work across any of our Tuesday–Sunday production shifts, including weekends, depending on production requirements. Start and finish times vary across the roster.

While full time is preferred, we’re open to discussing other arrangements with an exceptional candidate who can meet the needs of our production roster.

What we offer

- Competitive remuneration based on experience and qualifications
- Permanent employment with an award winning Adelaide Hills bakery
- Plenty of variety; this isn’t a role where you’ll make the same product all day
- The opportunity to work across both bread and pastry production
- A supportive, close-knit team
- Opportunities to develop your skills and participate in bakery competitions and industry events
- A workplace where initiative and good ideas are valued
