THE ROLE: PORTER (WEST LOOP)
Porters ensure Levain Bakeries are clean, food preparation areas are sanitized and up to the highest health code standards, and team members have all the clean tools they need in order to perform their jobs. The ideal candidate will take pride in making sure Levain’s spaces are well-maintained for team members and customers alike and be motivated by behind-the-scenes work.

What you’ll do:

• Clean and maintain workspaces, customer area and storefront throughout the shift (including sanitizing counters, food preparation areas, sweeping floors and sidewalk, mopping, emptying trash, bathrooms, dusting etc.)
• Wash, sanitize, and restock dishes, trays, baking tools, and other supplies
• Take out trash and assist with bakery opening and closing procedures
• Assist management with other responsibilities throughout the bakery as needed; we’re all working towards one goal, and it’s not uncommon for us to take an “all hands on deck” approach during particularly busy periods

What we’re looking for:

• Prior cleaning or custodian experience a plus; for the right people, we’re more than happy to teach
• Passion for what you do – you are highly self-motivated and find great satisfaction in keeping areas clean from top to bottom. You understand how a clean and safe work space is an important foundation for any workplace
• Adaptability and flexibility – you recognize that in the food industry, anything can – and will – happen and you’re able to calmly troubleshoot issues

• Collaborative spirit and commitment to Levain’s core values – you’re a team player and willing to lend a hand or elevate those around you. You add your own individuality to an already positive and uplifting work environment. A good sense of humor doesn’t hurt either!
