Job description

Assistant Bakery Operations Manager

The Assistant Bakery Operations Manager (ABOM) is a leadership pipeline role designed to develop the next generation of Bakery Operations Managers. ABOMs are expected to operate at near-BOM level, executing bakery operations with urgency, accuracy, and accountability while building the leadership skills needed to run a bakery independently.

This role blends hands-on operational excellence with talent development, administrative ownership, and team leadership. ABOMs act as a true extension of the BOM and must be capable of stepping into full bakery ownership when needed. Our South Loop store located at 30 E Balbo Drive, Chicago IL 60605.

Key Responsibilities

  • Talent & Team Development
  • Support recruiting, interviewing, onboarding, and training of new staff
  • Deliver consistent coaching and real-time performance feedback
  • Hold team members accountable to standards while reinforcing a growth mindset culture
  • Ensure onboarding and training programs are executed to company standards
  • Leadership & Ownership
  • Manage bakery operations independently in the absence of the BOM
  • Model urgency, accountability, and operational discipline
  • Partner with BOM and Area leadership to identify operational gaps and implement solutions
  • Maintain continuity of operations during leadership transitions or staffing shortages
  • Other duties as assigned

What Success Looks Like

  • Able to independently execute all BOM-level administrative and operational tasks
  • Bakery is fully staffed, trained, and operating at high standards
  • Strong culture of accountability and consistency
  • Acts as a reliable operational leader during any coverage scenario
  • Demonstrates clear readiness and upward mobility toward a BOM role

Qualifications & Experience

  • Strong operational discipline and attention to detail
  • Ability to coach and develop hourly team members
  • Comfortable working in fast-paced, high-volume environments
  • Ability to perform all bakery roles during peak business periods
  • Strong communication and problem-solving skills

Sweet Position Perks

  • Competitive pay ($18.50 - $21.00/hr.) + bonus eligibility
  • Medical, dental, vision & pet insurance
  • Paid vacation + wellness days
  • Career development pipeline into BOM leadership
  • Free cookies every shift
  • Fun, fast-paced team culture
