Job Description:
The Bagel Fam is growing We’re looking for someone who can run a
kitchen like a well-oiled (or well-boiled) bagel machine. As our
Bakery Production Manager , you aren’t just baking; you’re the
heartbeat of Ugly Bagel Distribution Co. You’ll oversee our
centralized production hub in Franklin, ensuring that fresh bagels,
signature schmears, and secret sauces hit our satellite stores
before the sun even thinks about coming up. You’re equal parts
production mastermind, team coach, and calm-under-pressure problem
solver. If you thrive in "organized chaos," love the smell of yeast
at 3:00 AM, and take bagels (but not yourself) seriously—we need to
talk. What You’ll Do Run the Show: Oversee daily production for all
locations. You’ll manage yields, batch consistency, and
quality—because an "ugly" bagel should only be ugly in name. Build
the Dream Team: Hire, train, and lead a crew of bagel makers and
drivers. You’ll handle scheduling, coaching, and performance
reviews to keep the "bagel fam" crushing it. Protect the Recipe:
Ensure every schmear and sauce follows our SOPs to a T. No rogue
bakers inventing "taco-flavored bagels" on the fly without a plan.
Master the Logistics: Coordinate delivery routes and schedules.
You’re the reason our stores have what they need to open their
doors at 7:00 AM sharp. Manage the Goods: Keep a hawk-eye on
inventory, place orders with suppliers, and minimize waste. You’ll
be the bridge between our production hub and satellite managers.
Safety First: Maintain a sparkling clean, health-code-compliant
kitchen. You’ll handle logs, equipment maintenance, and safety
training. What You Bring (Qualifications) The Must-Haves:
Experience: 3–5 years in a bakery, production kitchen, or food
manufacturing management role. Leadership: A proven track record of
managing teams and hitting daily output targets. Grit: The ability
to work early mornings, stand for long shifts, and lift 50 lbs.
Organization: You’re a wizard with production schedules and time
management. Communication: You can lead a team through a 4:00 AM
rush with clarity and a positive attitude. The Nice-to-Haves:
Experience with multi-location distribution or wholesale. A
background in artisan bread or bagel baking. ServSafe Manager
Certification. Tech-savvy with inventory or production planning
software. Why You’ll Love It Here Founding Influence: You’re the
first leader of our Distribution Center. This is your kitchen to
shape and grow from day one. Real Culture: We’re a growing brand
that values your ideas, your sanity, and your growth. Impact: You
aren't just a cog in a machine; you’re the one building the
machine. Room to Grow: As we expand to new locations, your role and
opportunities expand with us. Ready to Run the Show? Click to apply
and send us your resume and a quick note about why you’re the next
Head Dough Boss . Tell us about your experience, what gets you
fired up about production, and why you think you’d vibe with the
Ugly Bagel Fam. Ugly Bagel is an equal opportunity employer. We
celebrate diversity and are committed to creating an inclusive
environment for all employees. We also participate in E-verify.
