At Budapest Bakeshop, our savoury chimney sandwiches are one part show, one part crave-worthy comfort. We’re looking for someone who thrives on consistency, speed, and keeping things fresh (literally and figuratively). You’ll be rolling up your sleeves, assembling deliciousness, and helping us serve joy—one sandwich at a time.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Assembling sandwiches according to our recipes—layered with care, speed, and flavour
• Preparing ingredients: slicing meats and cheese, mixing spreads, portioning toppings
• Following sandwich build standards so every order looks (and tastes) right
• Keeping your station clean, stocked, and prepped for peak times
• Maintaining proper food handling and safety standards—no shortcuts
• Supporting team members when needed—because we all win together
• Bringing good energy and a steady hand, even during the lunch rush

What Success Looks Like

1. Every Sandwich = A+ Target: Follows recipe, portioning, and presentation standards 100% of the time

2. Prep is On Point Your station is fully stocked and ready to roll 95%+ of shifts

3. Waste is Low Target: Less than 3% of ingredients or products are discarded due to prep or assembly errors

4. Kitchen is Spotless You maintain a clean, safe, and food-compliant workstation all shift long

5. You’re a Vibe You work well with others, keep the energy high, and help wherever it’s needed. No ego, just teamwork.

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

• Prep and assemble sandwiches according to company standards—every layer matters
• Slice meats, cheese, and other ingredients safely and efficiently
• Follow food safety, health, and cleanliness protocols like it’s second nature
• Keep your station clean, stocked, and always guest-facing ready
• Double-check each sandwich for quality and accuracy before it goes out
• Stay ahead of the rush by prepping smart and pacing well during peak times
• Maintain a calm, professional presence—guests are watching the show
• Communicate clearly with the FOH team to keep service flowing smoothly
• Assist with sweet chimney tasks or FOH support when needed—everyone pitches in
• Let leadership know when stock is low so nothing runs out mid-rush
• Bring a strong work ethic, a positive attitude, and a love for great food
• Follow all company policies, safety rules, and shift checklists
• Be open to learning other stations—we’ll train you if you’re ready to grow
• Perform other duties as assigned (because bakery life moves fast!)
