Job description

BAKERY SALES ASSISTANT - 7 hours per week, Saturday morning

About Natoora

Natoora started 20 years ago with a very simple, yet powerful goal to find incredible flavour in fresh produce. Today, our dedication to this mission has grown into an impactful network of over 500 independent growers spanning nine sourcing hubs across three continents.

We work with hundreds of kitchens and some of the most exciting and influential chefs in London, New York, Miami, Copenhagen, Paris, and Melbourne. However, our commitment to creating a better food system also extends beyond professional kitchens to a strong community of home consumers across the US and the UK.

On the way, we have been named a Sunday Times Fast Track 100 Company, appeared on the Financial Times’ list of Europe’s fastest-growing companies, and proudly received a GQ Food & Drinks Sustainability Award.

About the job

Natoora’s Bakery & Mill is focused on producing wholegrain, sourdough loaves made of fresh, whole grain flour stone milled in house. This is because we believe that flavour begins in the soil. As such, we start by selecting heritage grains from speciality growers across the UK, France and Italy. 

By stone-milling this wheat in-house and using the whole grain, we produce fresh flours displaying the authentic flavours of their origins. We apply the same attention to detail to each ingredient.  And so the quality of our bread is rooted in these provenance-led ingredients and our commitment to the traditional craft of sourdough bread baking. 

Key Responsibilities

  • You will look after our customers and provide the best client service.
  • You will help people engage with the products.
  • Ensure that our displays are refreshed and looking their best throughout the day. 
  • Maintain a visually compelling store that is neat, clean and organised.
  • Set up and close down the bakery shop front every Saturday. 
  • Take photos of the display and bread to support the Alma instagram.

About you

  • You care about what you eat: where it comes from and how it’s made.
  • You have passion and commitment to learning about our bread and bakery.
  • You are approachable, caring, and enjoy offering great customer service.
  • You are a responsible and resolutive person.
  • You will work well independently.
  • We look for a minimum 1 year of work experience, in any field.
  • We look for fluency in spoken English.

Perks

  • Natoora produce at a significant discount
  • Free bread

Our vision for a better food system is built on real human relationships and a diversity of experience, perspective and ideas. We are committed to equality of opportunity and welcome applications from individuals, regardless of age, gender, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socio-economic background, religion and/or belief.
