What are the responsibilities and job description for the Pastry Chef/Baker position at Tall Poppy NYC?
About Us:
Tall Poppy is a small bakery in Chelsea, serving up bloody good croissants and other delicious baked goods (and of course, coffee).
Our owners, Nina and Alexandra are Australian, but have spent the last few years working in NYC as lawyers. We love NYC but what we really miss is the quality and freshness of Australian baked goods. So we have embarked on a mission to reimagine tradition in a cute little space where the Chelsea community can find fresh, high quality pastries and bread. We are building a little team of great people to grow with us. We can promise you a supportive, fun, fast-paced environment that treats you as part of a family!
Position Summary:
We're looking for a pastry chef / baker to join our small but mighty team at our bakery in Chelsea!
You'd be making croissants and other Australian-inspired baked goods using top quality ingredients and state of the art baking equipment. We're a quick service restaurant, so the environment will be fast-paced.
Most importantly, we're looking for someone who's eager to learn, enthusiastic, reliable and values a supportive team environment. You'll need to be a good problem solver, able to take initiative and think on your feet. You will be part of a collaborative team working together to perfect our processes, both customer-facing and behind the scenes. If you're looking to grow, we will support you both personally and professionally. Initially you'll predominantly be responsible for making beautiful baked goods for our customers, but we have big plans for expansion - the right person will grow with us and will have the opportunity take on as much responsibility as they are looking for as part of the managerial team moving forward.
We are flexible on schedule and number of hours for the right person. The shop will be open for breakfast and lunch every day of the week, so we can discuss what works for you.
$30/hour. More importantly - plenty of delicious baked goods to eat while you're at work!
Responsibilities:
- Prepare laminated pastry and other Australian-inspired treats
- Maintain a clean environment in accordance with food safety requirements (food protection certificate a plus, but we can help you get this if you don't already have one)
- Create menu items and test (read: eat) baked goods for quality assurance
- Help out with other areas of the small business as required, particularly any areas you'd like to learn more about (management, financials, etc) if that's something you're interested in
