Overnight Food Manufacturing Sanitation Associate

Pay: $18–20/hr Schedule: Full-Time, 35–40 hrs/week | 6:00 PM – 2:00 AM | Weekend availability required

About the Role

Too Sweet Cakes is looking for an experienced sanitation professional to help keep our bakery production facility clean, safe, and SQF audit-ready every night. This isn't general janitorial work — it's hands-on sanitation in an active food manufacturing environment, and it plays a direct role in the safety and quality of everything we bake.

This role requires prior sanitation experience in a food manufacturing, food production, or bakery setting. General warehouse or custodial experience alone won't meet the bar for this position.

What You'll Do

• Facility & Equipment Sanitation
• Clean, scrub, and sanitize floors, walls, drains, and work surfaces throughout the production facility
• Sanitize production equipment, racks, carts, tables, and bakery fixtures per Sanitation Standard Operating Procedures (SSOPs)
• Perform routine and deep-cleaning tasks to maintain SQF and GMP compliance
• Safely operate floor scrubbers, hoses, power washers, and approved sanitation chemicals
• Maintain cleanliness in storage areas, docks, refrigeration units, and common areas as assigned
• Flag sanitation, maintenance, or food safety concerns as soon as you spot them
• Dishwashing & Tool Sanitation
• Wash, sanitize, and organize dishes, utensils, trays, pans, and small production equipment
• Operate commercial dishwashing equipment and manual wash stations to food safety standards
• Inspect cleaned items before they go back into storage or production
• Keep dishwashing and sanitation areas clean, organized, and stocked
• Documentation & Compliance
• Complete sanitation logs and checklists accurately and on time
• Follow SQF, GMP, OSHA, and company food safety policies
• Help keep the facility audit-ready at all times, for internal and external audits alike
• Working Conditions
• You'll be working in an active bakery production environment with exposure to water, cleaning chemicals, and temperature changes. PPE (gloves, non-slip footwear) is required. It's fast-paced work that calls for consistency, precision, and a sharp eye for food safety.

Requirements

• Required
• Prior sanitation experience in a food manufacturing, food production, or bakery environment (mandatory)
• Working knowledge of — or ability to quickly learn — SSOPs, GMPs, and food safety sanitation procedures
• Ability to follow written and verbal safety and sanitation instructions
• Comfort with physically demanding work: standing, bending, lifting, repetitive motion
• Ability to lift up to 50 lbs
• Availability for a full-time overnight schedule, including weekends
• Reliable attendance and strong attention to detail
• Nice to Have
• Experience in an SQF-certified or audit-regulated food production facility
• Familiarity with SQF, GMPs, or other structured food safety programs
• Food Handler's Card (or willingness to obtain one before your start date)
