Baldface Lodge is looking for a Lodge Baker to join our kitchen team. This is a great opportunity for an experienced baker who loves the energy of seasonal, lodge-based work and takes pride in creating delicious food in a fast-paced, remote environment.
Reporting to the Head Chef, you'll be responsible for keeping our 48+ guests well-fed with fresh, high-quality baked goods throughout their stay—from morning pastries and muffins to sandwich bread, cookies, and daily plated desserts.
