About Laurel Bakery
Laurel Bakery is the bakery project of Redwood Hospitality, the Brooklyn-based hospitality group behind Michelin-starred Oxalis, Place des Fêtes, Cafe Mado, and Golden Ratio.
Originally launched in 2024, Laurel quickly developed a deeply loyal following and became known for its breads, pastries, and viennoiserie throughout Brooklyn’s restaurant and bakery community. Following a temporary pause in operations in 2026, Redwood Hospitality is now preparing for Laurel’s next chapter with a clearer operational vision, a more disciplined production model, and a renewed focus on building a durable long-term business.
We are currently seeking an experienced Head Baker / Baker Managing Partner to help lead that next phase.
This role is not simply about producing exceptional breads and pastries. We are looking for a baker with a sophisticated understanding of bakery operations, production management, labor structure, scheduling, forecasting, and financial discipline — someone excited not only by craft, but by helping build and operate an exceptional bakery business thoughtfully and sustainably.
For the right candidate, this role will evolve into a long-term operating partnership with equity participation.
The Opportunity
Laurel’s next iteration will be intentionally more focused, operationally disciplined, and strategically structured than the first.
As part of this relaunch, we are reassessing the business around:
Redwood Hospitality will remain highly involved operationally and financially in the business. We are not seeking a hands-off consultant or isolated bakery lead — we are seeking a collaborative operating partner who wants to help shape and grow Laurel alongside an active hospitality group deeply invested in its success.
Salary: $80,000–$100,000+ depending on experience and scope
Equity Participation: Potential equity or profit-sharing opportunities for the right long-term partner
Benefits: Health, dental, and vision insurance; paid time off; commuter benefits; dining discounts across
What We’re Looking For
The ideal candidate has extensive experience leading professional bakery operations and understands both the creative and operational realities of running a successful bakery business.
We are especially interested in candidates who:
Strong preference will be given to candidates with prior leadership experience overseeing bakery teams, managing production systems, and participating in broader operational or financial decision-making.
Core Responsibilities
Leadership & Team Development
Production & Operations Management
Financial & Administrative Oversight
Product Development
Health, Safety & Compliance
We believe great hospitality businesses are built through collaboration, operational discipline, strong culture, and long-term thinking.
We are especially interested in candidates looking for a long-term leadership opportunity and excited by the possibility of helping shape the future of Laurel Bakery from the ground up.
