“I’m a Mechanical Engineer, so it’s my job to keep the machines in the bakery running and maintained on a daily basis.
What’s different about working here is that we don’t just make one product like most other bakeries. We’re very diverse making a vast range of products and it can be tough to keep adapting. But you’ve got everything you need here to do it."
