About Co-Dough

Co-Dough is a sourdough-focused bakery built on a commitment to doing things the right
way  high-quality ingredients, no shortcuts, and a lot of care behind everything we make. We're growing  quickly and looking for someone who wants to be part of building something long-term — not just  looking for a job, but a role they can grow into.

About the Role

The PM Cleaner is responsible for maintaining a sanitary and organized facility at the close of  each production day.

• Trash, Cardboard & Oil
  • Tie and remove all trash, placing bags directly in the dumpster with the lid fully closed
  • Break down all cardboard boxes flat before disposal
  • Dispose of used oil in the designated outside container — never left inside overnight
• Closing Reset
  • Reset equipment for the morning team: ovens off, proofers reset, sheeter cleaned, mixers wiped and unplugged if required
  • Move dirty rags and aprons to the hamper and remove the hamper from the production area into receptacle outside 
  • Check the restroom for cleanliness and restock toilet paper and paper towels
  • Complete the End-of-Shift Checklist
