We’re looking for a pastry cook to join the team at Raf’s, where craft and creativity come together in every bake.
This role is all about finesse—shaping perfect tarts, layering flaky laminated doughs, and creating desserts that feel as indulgent as they are balanced. Raf’s is a space where high-quality ingredients and thoughtful techniques take center stage, and we’re looking for someone who shares our commitment to excellence.
We need someone who’s confident working on their own but knows how to jump in and collaborate when needed. You have a positive attitude, bring good energy, and are just a pleasure to be around. If you know what we mean by “creaming method” and can deliver consistent, quality results every time, you’re already on the right track.
You multitask like a pro, keep an eye on the details, and know when it’s time to hustle. You thrive in a fast-paced kitchen but never compromise on precision. If you’re ready to balance independence and teamwork while creating pastries that speak for themselves, we’d love to hear from you.
