Rocco’s Cucina & Buddha Bear Café – Riverview, NB

We’re looking for a talented, creative baker who wants the opportunity to build something amazing, not just follow the same recipe book every day.

Our kitchen supports both Rocco’s Cucina and Buddha Bear Café, which means this role has a lot of variety. One day you may be working on beautiful café pastries and baked goods; the next, developing a new dessert for the restaurant, improving one of our existing recipes, or coming up with something completely new that makes people stop and say, “we need to try that!”

We want someone who can help us elevate our entire baking and dessert program.

This isn’t a large traditional bakery with one person doing the same task all day. We operate from a relatively small, busy space that serves several parts of our business, so the right person needs to be flexible, organized, resourceful and comfortable adapting as priorities change.

What you’ll be doing

- Producing fresh baked goods, pastries and desserts for our café and restaurant
- Developing new products, seasonal features and creative specials
- Creating products that look as good as they taste
- Managing production efficiently within a shared kitchen environment
- Helping establish recipes, processes and consistency as the program grows
- Working collaboratively with our culinary and café teams
- Bringing us ideas — we don’t want someone who waits to be told exactly what to make

Who we’re looking for We care about experience,



but we care just as much about creativity, attitude and ambition.

You might be a trained baker or pastry chef, or simply someone with strong skilled baking experience and a genuine passion for the craft.

You should be someone who:

- Takes pride in creating exceptional food
- Gets excited about trying new ideas
- Understands that presentation matters
- Can work independently and take ownership of their area
- Is organized and efficient in a smaller workspace
- Is comfortable shifting between café baking, restaurant desserts and special projects
- Wants to contribute ideas rather than simply maintain the status quo
- Can balance creativity with consistency and commercial practicality

Most importantly, we want someone who wants to wow us and our customers. If your idea of the job is making the same six items every week forever, this probably isn’t the right fit.

If you find yourself constantly thinking, “We could make this better,” “We should try this,” or “Wait until you see what I made,” we’d really like to meet you.

Send us your résumé along with a little bit about yourself, your baking experience, and — even better — some photos of your work.
