Bakery Production

The scent of freshly baked waffles and warm caramel hangs in the air here daily. At an artisanal, organic bakery in the Gilze/Waspik region, real Dutch delicacies are crafted with love and expertise - from stroopwafels to small bread. A permanent team, plenty of structure, and space to learn the trade and grow.

You will be working at an artisanal, organic bakery that produces bread and bakery products in a traditional way, with a focus on quality, natural ingredients, and sustainability. It is a close-knit work environment where colleagues know each other well and collaboration is key. Work is carried out according to established procedures, with short lines of communication between the people on the floor, and plenty of room to learn the baking trade and grow professionally.

As a production worker, you will assist in various areas within the bakery: from packaging products with a flow packer and helping with the dough process, to supporting the baker in the bread department. Depending on the department, you will be trained in specific tasks, such as operating and setting up machines, handling dough, or preparing raw materials. The workday often starts early (around 05:30-09:00, depending on the department), and work is done during the day shift, with the possibility of shift work in the future. You will work from Monday to Friday.
