Baker Training Program

Save More Food Market is looking for motivated individuals interested in building a career in the bakery profession.

Our Baker Training Program is a structured, hands-on development program designed to teach participants the skills needed to become a well-rounded retail baker.

You do not need to already be an experienced baker. We are looking for dependable people who enjoy working with their hands, take pride in producing quality products, and are interested in learning a skilled trade.

Participants will receive hands-on training throughout our bakery operation, including:

• Scratch and production baking
• Breads, rolls and pastries
• Cakes, cupcakes and desserts
• Mixing, proofing, baking and finishing techniques
• Proper use of commercial bakery equipment
• Product preparation and presentation
• Packaging, labeling and merchandising
• Production planning and inventory management
• Food safety, sanitation and proper cleaning procedures
• Quality standards and consistency
• Customer service
• The day-to-day operation of a successful retail bakery

The goal of the program is not to train you for just one bakery task. We want to develop individuals who understand the entire bakery operation and have the skills to grow into experienced bakers and future bakery leaders.

Previous professional baking experience is not required.

Successful candidates should be:

• Interested in learning baking as a trade and career
• Dependable and willing to learn
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
• Able to follow recipes and detailed procedures
• Willing to learn multiple areas of the bakery
• Focused on quality and consistency
• Comfortable with the physical requirements of bakery work

Skilled bakers are developed through experience, repetition and hands-on training.

This program is an opportunity to learn the trade while working in a real bakery environment, develop skills that can be used throughout your career, and create opportunities for advancement within our bakery operation.

If you've ever thought about becoming a baker but didn't know where to start, this is your opportunity to learn.
