About Hy-Vee

At Hy-Vee, we believe the shortest distance between two people is a smile. We're seeking people with a passion for customer service, a willingness to learn, and a commitment to being part of a team that strives to make our customers' lives easier, healthier and happier.

The Role and Why It's Important

At Hy-Vee, our Bakery Clerks play a key role in keeping one of our most popular departments running smoothly and smelling amazing. In this role, you'll prepare and replenish products, assist customers at the bakery counter, and help create the kind of warm, welcoming experience that keeps people coming back.

If you enjoy working with your hands, take pride in a job well done, and love being part of a team that makes customers' days a little sweeter, this could be a great fit for you.

What You'll Do

No two shifts are exactly the same, but here's what you can expect:

Deliver outstanding customer service by greeting customers warmly and making them feel welcome in the bakery

Assist customers with finding products, reaching items, carrying heavy purchases, and taking orders at the bakery counter

Review daily orders and monitor product freshness, appearance, and supply levels throughout your shift

Prepare, finish, and replenish baked goods as needed, pulling product from the cooler or freezer to prepare for baking

Follow and maintain proper sanitation procedures, keeping your work area clean and organized at all times

Check in product, put product away, and review invoices as needed

Operate the department register to process payments where applicable

Remove trash in a timely manner and maintain a tidy department

Work alongside your teammates to ensure a smooth, positive experience for every customer

Maintain compliance with Hy-Vee's dress code, hygiene standards, and all company policies

Assist in other store areas and take on special projects as needed

You'll receive direction and support from: Store Director, Store Manager, Assistant Managers of Perishables, Store Operations, and Health Wellness Home, and Bakery Department Manager

Your Skills

You don't need prior experience for this role! We'll happily train and support you as you grow. To be successful, you'll need to be able to:

Follow written and verbal instructions with confidence

Use basic math skills for simple addition, subtraction, counting, and recording

Communicate clearly with customers and teammates in a friendly, helpful way

Stay organized and keep up with the pace of a busy bakery environment

Less than a high school diploma or equivalent accepted; up to six months of similar or related experience preferred

Reporting Relationships

Accountable and Reports to: Store Director, Store Manager, Assistant Managers of Perishables, Store Operations, and Health Wellness Home, and Bakery Department Manager

Education and Experience

Less than a high school diploma or equivalent experience accepted

Up to six months of similar or related work experience preferred

Physical Requirements

Frequently stand and walk throughout a shift in sales, food service, or delivery areas

Where applicable to the role: ability to safely use sharp knives and blades for food preparation

Where applicable to the role: exposure to heat- and burn-related hazards associated with cooking, baking, or grilling equipment

Where applicable to the role: ability to operate a delivery vehicle in accordance with applicable DOT standards

Perform repetitive standing, walking, reaching, and bending associated with order fulfillment, POS transactions, and cleaning/sanitation duties

Working Environment

This role is based in a store bakery environment where things stay busy and engaging. You may encounter exposure to flour dust, noise, temperature extremes, and damp conditions, all pretty standard for a bakery setting. The role also involves working with and around standard bakery equipment and may include exposure to electrical equipment and cleaning products or solvents. Safety is always a priority, and training is provided to help ensure a safe and supportive work environment.

The anticipated hourly starting wage for this position is $16.50 to $20.60 depending on experience.
