What is it like to work at De Paauw?

Bakery, transport and technology form a single chain. We work as a cohesive team: everyone plays their part to ensure the bread leaves the premises on time and to the right standard. Day in, day out.

Our team

Experienced staff with specialist knowledge and new colleagues keen to develop. We work in shifts, seven days a week. This requires discipline and flexibility, but it also offers freedom: during the week, you’re often able to finish on time. At De Paauw, you take responsibility. Not because someone is watching, but because you’re proud of the result.
