We're Hiring: Kitchen Manager

Sheepscot General is a organic farm and country store with a bakery, deli, and cafe on Townhouse Road in Whitefield. For 15 years we've been baking bread from scratch, tossing pizza dough by hand, and cooking with what's growing in our own fields.

Our kitchen is entering a new chapter, and we're looking for someone who wants to lead it.

We're looking for someone who can:

Run a comprehensive sourdough program — starter, mixing, retarding, high-hydration shaping, scoring, baking
Bake pies, cookies, pastries, and cakes to a high standard
Keep our pizza, bakery, and deli program running with quality, consistency, and heart
Build weekly production lists and menus around what's actually in season on our farm
Own kitchen costing, pricing, and margins — and make the calls to keep them healthy
Train and lead a kitchen team, build a schedule, and set the tone for a calm, confident crew
Keep the kitchen clean, organized, and running smoothly — daily upkeep and deep cleans alike
Manage kitchen inventory and ordering with our regular distributors
You are:
- A skilled baker and cook who genuinely loves the craft
- Organized, and comfortable owning the numbers as well as the food
- A steady, trustworthy leader who brings out the best in a team
- Excited by the idea of cooking from scratch with real, local ingredients — and a little creative freedom to make it your own
- Aligned with what we're about: healthy, sustainable, community-oriented food, made from the most natural and affordable ingredients we can find
What you'll get:
- Competitive wages based on experience
- Employee discount
- Accrued PTO
- Paid Family Leave
- Option for matching retirement funds
- Option for dental insurance
- A supportive, down-to-earth team — and a say in how our kitchen grows
If this sounds like your kind of kitchen, we'd love to hear from you. Send a resume and cover letter to sheepscotgeneral@gmail.com, or drop it off in person at 98 Townhouse Road, Whitefield.
