Bakery and Patisserie Production Manager

Are you a highly experienced bakery and patisserie professional with proven supervisory experience ready to take on a critical founding role? Roundtable Supply Co. is seeking a Bakery and Patisserie Production Manager to be the principal operational leader for our brand-new production facility.

This is an inaugural, highly hands-on position that requires qualifications and prior experience in both pastry and sourdough production. You will be accountable for successfully establishing, commissioning, and optimizing the facility from day one, while also managing the daily production, system setup, and distribution readiness for all bakery products.

What You'll Be Doing:

  • Serving as the principal operational leader, overseeing daily production and managing system setup and distribution readiness.
  • Leading the successful establishment, commissioning, and documentation of the new facility for maximum efficiency within the first quarter.
  • Directly executing operations and strategic planning to ensure the timely delivery of consistently superior quality products.
  • Driving recipe development and implementation to ensure superior quality croissant, pastry, and sourdough products are consistently produced according to strict specifications and schedules.
  • Establishing and actively maintaining robust Food Safety (HACCP) and WHS systems to ensure 100% compliance.
  • Building, efficiently rostering, and training a collaborative and highly skilled production team to support scalable growth.
  • Executing production operations and resource management with optimal efficiency to achieve profitability targets, including Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) control.

What We're Looking For:

To be successful in this role, you can point to specific examples in your career where you have:

  • Successfully led the startup, commissioning, or substantial restructuring of a food production facility, with details on equipment validation and workflow optimisation.
  • Implemented a Continuous Improvement initiative that measurably reduced ingredient waste or production labor hours per unit.
  • Developed or scaled the production of highly technical products like laminated dough or long-fermentation sourdough, maintaining quality consistency across high-volume batches.
  • Established or significantly improved a documented food safety system (HACCP), detailing measurable improvements in compliance or reduction in quality failures.
  • Successfully trained and mentored new production teams, resulting in measurable improvements in product output, error reduction, or team retention.
  • Successfully managed the product development lifecycle for new food lines that met market trends and customer needs.

Working with Roundtable Supply Co:

We are an inclusive and team-first business, committed to providing equal opportunity and a safe workplace for all. Our values guide our decisions, and we strive to provide a positive workplace where everyone is treated with respect and equity.

We care for our team, aspiring to provide rewarding careers and healthy work-life balance. We also value diversity—we embrace difference, welcome people to be themselves, and approach every situation with curiosity.

If you're ready to make a significant impact as the founding production leader and set the standard for operational excellence, we'd love to hear from you.
