Organization

What once started as a bakery in Tilburg has grown over the years into a modern industrial bakery in Berkel-Enschot. Throughout this development, the passion for the baking profession has always remained at its heart. Every day, Dutch egg cakes (eierkoeken) and a variety of other bakery products are produced here for retailers, the hospitality sector, and wholesalers in the Netherlands and abroad.

Within the organisation, traditional craftsmanship goes hand in hand with modern production techniques. In 2020, for example, the dough-making process was fully automated, and the company continues to invest in its production processes. Quality plays an important role in this and is also reflected in the certifications the company has achieved. An organisation with a long history, yet with its sights firmly set on the future.

Function

As a Bakery oven operator, you will work at various stages of the production process. You prepare dough and batter according to established recipes and then process them using filling or depositing machines. Depending on the product, you may also apply and distribute fillings by hand. You supply the machines with the correct ingredients and make sure the production process continues to run smoothly.

Next comes the baking process. You set the ovens correctly, load the oven racks, and ensure they are changed at the right time. Meanwhile, you closely monitor the baking process and make adjustments whenever necessary. Once the products are ready, you move them on to the next stage of production and also assist with packaging and quality checks.

You also keep a close eye on the production equipment. You carry out minor maintenance yourself and report any malfunctions promptly. At the end of your shift, you clean the workplace according to the established cleaning schedules, ensuring that it meets the required quality standards.
