Pastry Sous Chef

Full-time

Ayu Bakehouse

Ayu Bakehouse is growing, and we're looking for a Pastry Sous Chef to join our team, starting mid-summer.

This is a leadership role for someone who is not only skilled in the craft of pastry, but who thrives in a collaborative kitchen and enjoys helping others grow. As one of two Pastry Sous, you'll work closely with our Pastry Chef and ownership team to support daily production, training, quality control, and seasonal menu development while helping shape the future of our pastry program.

We're a young company with ambitious goals. As we continue to grow, we're looking for someone who wants to grow with us—someone who values professionalism, mentorship, accountability, and the power of honest, constructive feedback.

You might be a great fit if you:

• Have experience leading a pastry team in a professional kitchen
• Take pride in clear communication and a calm, solutions-focused approach
• Enjoy training, coaching, and helping others succeed
• Are curious, self-motivated, and always looking to learn
• Care deeply about quality, consistency, and hospitality

We're looking for someone with schedule flexibility who can occasionally adjust their days to help cover vacations, events, or unexpected staffing needs. This is a full-time, hourly position with competitive pay and significant opportunities for professional growth and leadership development.

Benefits include:
• Paid time off
• Vacation pay
• Employer contribution toward health insurance for eligible full-time employees
• Short-term disability insurance
• Free mental health care
• Free coffee and tea during shifts
• Generous employee discount

To apply, please send your resume and a short note telling us what excites you about working with Ayu. References will be requested if selected for a trail shift.
