Love sourdough? Come make it with us!

About us

Sprout Artisan Bakery has earned a loyal following across Brisbane for handcrafted bread and pastries. Based at our production home at Craft'd Grounds in Albion, we're a wholesale and retail bakery with a close-knit team who genuinely enjoy working together. Our bread production crew has more than 25 years of combined experience.

About the role

We're looking for a full time Senior Sourdough Baker. You'll report to our Production Supervisor and be a key contributor to the daily running of our bread production. It's a fast-paced, hands-on job with real deadlines, so you'll need to be organised and calm when the ovens are full.

You'll keep our much-loved product lines consistent and beautiful, and when the seasons turn or new ingredients come into play, we want you to help shape what comes next. This is a creative challenge as much as a production role.

Key responsibilities

- Weighing, mixing and making doughs to our recipes and methods
- Hand-shaping sourdough loaves, baguettes and rolls
- Running our convection and deck ovens
- Producing high volumes without compromising on quality or presentation
- Keeping an eye on inventory,



cleanliness and hygiene
- Guiding, training and delegating to junior teammates, and pitching in wherever needed

About you

- At least 3 years' experience as a baker, in a similar role or a high-volume kitchen
- Hands-on sourdough experience
- A baking qualification, trade certificate or solid length of tenure
- A real passion for quality and consistency, and a thirst to keep learning
- Strong people and communication skills, and the confidence to take direction and delegate
- Attention to detail and a high commitment to WH&S;, including spotting and minimising hazards
- A can-do attitude and a level head under time pressure
- Flexibility for midnight starts, weekends and public holidays, as the roster requires
- Unrestricted right to work in Australia

Benefits

- A respected Brisbane name, with a team that's been doing this for over a decade
- Room to be creative with seasonal and ingredient-led ideas
- A supportive, team-first workplace with supervisors who understand that family come first and a work/life balance is important
- Advancement opportunities
