HELPING THE BAKER COLLECTIVE RUN LIKE CLOCKWORK
The Baker Collective is a group of inns and taverns, grown organically since 2003, shaped by brilliant teams, loyal guests, and the communities we are part of. With nearly 100 people across kitchens, front of house, housekeeping, and leadership, we exist to do one thing well: make people happy.
We believe excellence should be consistent - in our places, our product, and with our people. Our leaders should be free to lead, to inspire, and to focus on what truly matters.
This role makes that possible.
----------------------------------- What this role is really about...
This is not a traditional admin job.
This role is the engine room of the business. It is about creating clarity, calm, and consistency behind the scenes so everything else can shine.
You will connect people, systems, information, and compliance — making sure the right things happen, at the right time, in the right way. You’ll be the person who quietly prevents chaos, spots issues early, and keeps the business running smoothly.
If done well, most people won’t notice you — because nothing will feel stressful, rushed, or broken. That’s the magic.
----------------------------------- Why this role is really matters...
When this role is done well:
• Leaders can lead, not firefight
• Teams feel supported, informed, and confident
• Guests feel the difference, even if they can’t name it
• Growth becomes easier, not heavier
• The business runs with calm, not noise
You’ll be central to how we work, not on the edges of it.
