We’re looking for passionate and creative Bakers to join the team at Boxcar, with opportunities available across both daytime and nighttime shifts.

This is an exciting opportunity for bakers at different stages of their careers. We’re looking for people who can support with core baking tasks such as cake production and prep, as well as more experienced bakers confident in bread, sourdough, and viennoiserie, including double lamination.
