Seasonal Full Time Baker

We’re hiring a lead baker to join our production team, focused on creating and executing daily pastry and bakery items with love, precision, and efficiency.
Bread + Butter started in the basement of my home in Tasmania, Australia, where I churned butter by hand for customers at my local farmers market. From here, my butter made its way into the pastries at my first bakery, which opened in 2018. It escalated from there, and we now have three locations in Australia and employ fifty dedicated bakers, cooks, baristas and hospitality experts, all built from the simple desire to deliver delicious and exceptional coffee, pastries, and food to our community.
Our move to LA seems odd to most, but it makes perfect sense at the same time. Our guiding light remains the same in all we do: dedication to exceptional pastry, food and coffee, deep respect for tradition, honesty and integrity, and an unwavering commitment to our community.
We are searching for an experienced baker to join us full-time. This will be an exciting opportunity to join the OG US team and help further establish our little bakery as part of the fabric of Santa Monica.
