  • Work collaboratively with the wider kitchen team to ensure service flow and consistency across outlets or service periods.
  • Support pre opening or launch activities where required, including kitchen setup, recipe trials, and readiness checks.
  • Monitor stock levels within the pastry section and communicate replenishment needs in a timely manner.
  • Use ingredients efficiently and minimize wastage through correct production planning, storage, and portion control.
  • Ensure pastry products are labelled, stored, rotated, and handled correctly to maintain freshness, food safety, and yield control.
  • Support inventory counts and basic ordering requirements for the pastry section as assigned.

Requirements

  • Minimum 3 5 years of pastry experience in a hotel, restaurant, bakery, or other professional hospitality environment, including experience at CDP level or as a strong Demi Chef de Partie ready to step up.
  • Good knowledge of pastry preparation, baking techniques, dessert production, and section management.
  • Strong understanding of food safety, hygiene, HACCP, and kitchen cleanliness standards.
  • Ability to manage a pastry section independently and perform effectively under pressure.
  • Experience in high volume, luxury, fine dining, or pre opening environments is an advantage.
  • Diploma, certification, or formal training in Pastry Arts, Culinary Arts, Baking, or a related discipline is preferred.

Skills and Competencies

  • Strong technical pastry skills and good product knowledge.
  • Attention to detail in quality, finish, portioning, and presentation.
  • Good organizational skills and strong section discipline.
  • Ability to remain calm and effective during busy service periods.
