CredentialsFood safety certifications, management experienceCulinary degree or pastry certification

Industry UsageOversees baking operations, manages staff, ensures qualityPrepares pastries, desserts, and baked goods, often creatively

The Baking Manager focuses on overseeing baking operations, managing staff, and ensuring product quality, often in larger commercial settings. In contrast, a Pastry Chef specializes in creating pastries and desserts, emphasizing culinary artistry. Both roles require baking knowledge, but the Baking Manager has more managerial responsibilities, while the Pastry Chef concentrates on recipe development and presentation.

What skills and qualifications are needed to be a baking manager?

To thrive as a Baking Manager, you need expertise in baking techniques, inventory management, and food safety regulations, often supported by experience in commercial kitchens and a culinary or baking certification. Familiarity with bakery equipment, point-of-sale systems, and scheduling software is typically required. Strong leadership, time management, and customer service skills help drive team performance and ensure a positive customer experience. These abilities are crucial for maintaining product quality, operational efficiency, and customer satisfaction in a fast-paced bakery environment.

What is a baking manager?

Baking Managers are professionals who oversee the daily operations of a bakery or baking department. Their responsibilities include supervising staff, managing inventory, ensuring quality standards, scheduling production, and maintaining food safety protocols. They may also develop new recipes, train employees, and interact with customers to address complaints or special orders. Baking Managers play a critical role in ensuring baked goods are produced efficiently, safely, and to high standards of quality.

How does a baking manager typically collaborate with other departments in a bakery or food production facility?

A Baking Manager regularly works with purchasing teams to ensure ingredient availability, coordinates with quality control to maintain food safety standards, and communicates with sales or front-of-house staff to align production with customer demand. They also often participate in menu development alongside culinary and marketing teams. Effective collaboration across these departments helps streamline operations, minimize waste, and ensure product consistency.

Job description

Job Summary

People Operations Specialist

MaryAnns Baking Company

Full-time

In-Office | Sacramento, CA, United States


The Opportunity

At its core, this isn't just a "back-office" role. You are the engine room of the employee experience. We are looking for a People Operations Specialist who finds equal joy in the meticulous detail of a perfectly balanced payroll run and the strategic nuances of designing a competitive compensation package.

You’ll be the go-to expert for the "nuts and bolts" of employment—benefits, leaves, and pay—while acting as a trusted consultant to our leadership team and a creative spark for our engagement initiatives.


Responsibilities

1. Payroll & Compensation Administration

  • The Paycheck Guardian: Manage end-to-end weekly payroll processing, ensuring 100% accuracy, and timeliness.

  • Comp Strategy: Assist in the design and maintenance of compensation structures. You’ll perform market benchmarking to ensure we aren’t just "competitive" on paper, but actually attractive to top-tier talent.

  • Cycles: Lead annual bonus distributions, providing data-driven recommendations.

  • Audit Ready: Maintain "impeccable" records. You’ll be the primary point of contact for payroll audits and reporting.

2. Benefits & Leave of Absence (LOA)

  • The Benefits Guide: Act as the primary resource for employees navigating health plans, 401(k) enrollments, and wellness perks. You make the complex stuff sound simple.

  • Support During Life Events: Manage the full lifecycle of Leaves of Absence (FMLA, Disability, Parental Leave, etc.). You’ll ensure employees feel supported while keeping the company compliant with federal and state regulations.

  • Open Enrollment: Assist in the annual benefits renewal process and lead the communication rollout to the front-line teams.

3. Leadership Consulting & Data Insights

  • Front-Line Partner: You won’t just sit in the office. You’ll consult directly with front-line managers to resolve pay disputes, interpret policies, and advise on best practices.

  • Process Improvement: Spot a bottleneck? Fix it. You’ll constantly look for ways to streamline how we do things.

  • HRIS Mastery: Maintain the integrity of our HRIS data, pulling reports that tell the story of our workforce.

4. Employee Engagement & Culture

  • Culture Catalyst: Collaborate with the broader People team to design and execute engagement activities—ranging from wellness challenges to team-building events.

  • Feedback Integration: Help analyze engagement survey data and work with the team to implement changes that improve the day-to-day lives of our team.


Experience/Qualifications

The Ideal Candidate

"You’re someone who treats a payroll error like a personal affront, but handles a sensitive leave request with the empathy of a close friend."

Qualifications:

  • Experience: 3–5 years in People Operations or HR, with a heavy focus on payroll and benefits.

  • The Technical Stuff: Deep familiarity with FLSA, FMLA, ERISA, and state-specific labor laws.

  • Systems Savvy: Experience navigating HRIS platforms (e.g., ADP, Workday, UKG, or Paycom) and a black belt in Microsoft Excel (VLOOKUPs and Pivot Tables are your best friends).

  • Communication: You can explain a 401(k) vesting schedule or a health insurance deductible to a non-expert without making their head spin.

  • Discretion: You handle sensitive data with the highest level of confidentiality—it’s not just a requirement; it’s your default setting.


What's in it for you? (Salary, Commissions & Benefits)

We offer more than just a desk and a laptop. You’ll have the autonomy to build processes from the ground up, the support to grow your career into strategic HR leadership, and a team that actually enjoys each other's company.

  • On-site position based in Sacramento, CA — work from our local office and collaborate face-to-face with the team

  • Competitive base salary as the core component of the compensation package

  • Attractive benefits plan with a strong 401(k) match.
