Chef – Quality-Focused Bakery – Ambleside, Cumbria – Daytime Hours

A rare opportunity has come up to join one of the Lake District’s most highly regarded bakeries – a beautiful, modern space serving exceptional sandwiches, pastries and coffee, made with real care and seasonal ingredients.

 

Please note: We are unable to offer sponsorship for this role and candidates must have the right to work in the UK without visa sponsorship. If you require Sponsorship please do not apply, thank you.

 

This is a daytime role in a professional kitchen that values quality and consistency over fine dining credentials.

 

What’s on offer:

 

  • Daytime hours only – no evenings
  • Full-time or part-time considered
  • Flexible working hours
  • A relaxed, professional environment
  • High-quality produce and seasonal menus
  • Opportunity to work in a respected Lake District business

 

You don’t need pastry experience or a Michelin background – just a good attitude, sound kitchen skills and a genuine passion for producing excellent food.

 

You’ll be working alongside a small, experienced team in a relaxed and collaborative environment.

 

Hours can be flexible, and the business is closed in the evenings, offering a great work-life balance without compromising on standards.

 

Duties include:

 

  • Preparing sandwich and savoury menu items to spec
  • Supporting baking and pastry prep where needed
  • Keeping your section clean and organised
  • Working closely with the team on daily prep and service
  • Ensuring quality and consistency in every dish
  • Maintaining food hygiene and safety standards

 

Whether you’re looking to step away from nights or simply want to be part of a business that cares about what it serves – this could be just the role.

 

Due to the number of applicants received, unfortunately we are unable to reply individually to each. Should your application be suitable for the role, then you’ll hear from us within 48 hours, thank you.
