You will also play a key role in promoting special offers, seasonal products, and new bakery items to customers, helping to drive sales and customer satisfaction. Your ability to communicate clearly and persuasively will be essential in encouraging customers to try new products and return regularly.
Maintaining a clean, organized, and welcoming environment is another important aspect of your role. You will be expected to regularly clean display cases, shelves, counters, and other areas of the bakery sales floor, ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations. You will also assist in inventory management, keeping track of stock levels, and notifying management when supplies are running low.
We value employees who demonstrate reliability, punctuality, and a strong work ethic. You should be flexible with your schedule, as bakery hours may include early mornings, evenings, weekends, and holidays.
