Join Our Team as a Hand Line Pasty Crimper!
Are you ready to become a key player in our pasty production process? Our Hand Line Pasty Crimpers are responsible for creating delectable hand-crimped pasties, a classic favourite loved by many. Join our passionate team and master the art of pasty crimping. Hours of work will be 06:00 to 16:00, 4 days out of 5 days Monday to Friday with a rotational day off each week, with 2 x 30 mins unpaid breaks.
Starting salary is £12.10 per hour with an enhanced rate of £15.13 per hour. Enhanced rate is for hours between 20:00 & 06:00 and for hours over 37.5 per week.
Key Responsibilities:
* Pasty Production: Produce an impressive 4 crimped pasties per minute, depending on the size of the pasty.
* Crimping Process: Remove pre-filled pastry bases from the line, fold the base over the fill, ensuring an even distribution of the filling, and perform 18-22 small folds around the edge to create the classic Cornish D-shaped pasty with a hand-crimped crust.
* Quality Control: Be vigilant about product build-up and pre-emptively remove any excess bases if too many uncrimped pasties pass through.
* Work Environment: Choose whether you'd like to stand or sit throughout your shift. Engage in conversations with fellow team members or work quietly, according to your preference.
* Team Support: Be part of a close-knit team with a dedicated team leader available to provide help and guidance.
* Nail Care: Clean, short nails are important for efficient crimping. We recommend working without gloves to ensure the best results.
* Training Program: Undergo a 4-week training programme that prioritises quality, turning you into a pasty-crimping pro in no time.
