About Us

We are relatively new artisan bakery in Bristol, built around quality, craft, and attention to detail. Our focus is simple: exceptional sourdough, refined pastries, and a product offering that feels premium, thoughtful, and consistent.

This is not a high-volume, low-quality operation - we care deeply about ingredients, process, and presentation. With a newly renovated space and plans to expand into a larger production site, this is an opportunity to be part of something from the ground up.

The Role

We are looking for a Head Pastry Chef to lead our pastry offering - someone highly skilled, detail-obsessed, and passionate about producing pastries that are as beautiful as they are delicious.

Oversee and train junior staff

Advanced experience with laminated doughs (essential)

Creative & Product Development

Passion for developing new pastries and seasonal items
Strong eye for aesthetic detail and presentation
Ability to balance creativity with consistency

Leadership

Experience managing or mentoring a team

Takes ownership and pride in their section

Bonus (Not Essential)

Experience with artisan bread or sourdough
Experience in a high-end bakery or patisserie

What We Offer

Competitive salary based on experience
Flexibility and work-life balance
Real creative input into the menu and brand
Opportunity to help build and shape a growing bakery
Progression into a larger production operation as we expand
A focused, quality-driven environment

Who This Role Is For

This role is ideal for someone who:

Wants to step into a lead role with real influence
Takes pride in producing exceptional, visually striking pastries
Cares about quality over shortcuts
Is excited by building something new from the ground up
