Bakery professionals
Ms B's Cakery
Ms B's Cakery, the upmarket cake shop based in Noho, Central, is hiring a cake decorator, a baker, a sales manager and support staff.
The bakery, set up by Bonnie Gokson (below centre) - better known from the world of fashion - currently has 15 employees.
Gokson says it is not easy to recruit the right staff in the hospitality industry. However, she keeps to her high standards.
'I like to hire staff with an open attitude, and who are willing to share their views and learn. We need positivity, enthusiasm and passion in our work, as the day can be long and tiring. Team spirit with a good attitude is a must, but not someone chitty-chatty who would distract others.'
Gokson's 'dream sales manager' should be savvy, responsible and experienced, have good contacts with a broad base of individuals and corporates, and creative to invent new opportunities. Grooming, manners and good English are also important.
