Part Time jobs in Edinburgh

We are a small award-winning artisan bakery based in Morningside and Leith, Edinburgh. We have been open for over 13 years, and are considered one of the top bakeries in the city, supplying farmer’s markets and a number of amazing Edinburgh business. We produce a range of very high-quality award-winning breads, biscuits, cakes and pastries from scratch on our premises, using the minimum of ingredients and no pre-mixes, enhancers, improvers or additives.

We currently have 2 vans and three drivers, however one of our great drivers is celebrating the birth of his new child, so taking some time off so we need to recruit a new person temporarily. The role will be for 3 days a week (Friday to Sunday) with additional hours for training. Mainly the role is packing orders and making deliveries to our fantastic customers and then cleaning out the van after each shift. The drivers also support us with our farmers markets, delivering and picking up staff, breads and equipment.

This role may suit someone who is recently retired, but still active and physically fit, or a student looking for work to supplement studies (or anyone who is looking for a part-time driving job).
