Job listings are shown below. If you are interested in work experience at the bakehouse or at Fellows Farm or if you'd love to do an internship within the bread or pastry team please fill in this form.

Part of our ethos at e5 is to be open and share knowledge where possible. Gaining experience in other bakeries has and remains an important way for our teams to exchange ideas and strengthen ties with others who share similar values within and outside of our community. It’s important for us to offer that opportunity to other people here at e5. We do however receive a huge number of stage requests and it is impossible for us to accommodate all of them. We prioritise those who share our passion for sustainability, inclusivity, diversity (both environmentally and in a human way) and who show genuine curiosity. Hosting stages takes time and resources from our hard-working teams and sometimes the day-to-day means we cannot afford to spare this time. Please be understanding if we cannot accommodate you and don’t let it deter you on your baking/pastry/farming/coffee journey.

We will try to reply as quickly as possible.

Please note that the stages we offer at e5 are unpaid work placements. However we work hard to make sure the experience is mutually beneficial and stagiaires finish their placements with us having learned a lot.

Senior Barista

Role Overview

We’re looking for a Senior Barista who brings more than just skill behind the bar — someone who is deeply curious about coffee and excited to share that passion with others. This is the perfect role for a coffee enthusiast who experiments at home, tweaks brew ratios for fun, and is always exploring new origins, techniques, and equipment. You know coffee is both an art and a science — and you love geeking out about both.

But just as importantly, you’ll play a key leadership role on our team. As Senior Barista, you’ll help support, nurture, and guide our team of baristas — creating a culture where curiosity, growth, and collaboration thrive. You’ll help build an environment where everyone feels motivated, valued, and empowered to become better baristas, coworkers, and humans.

It’s essential that you understand the importance of serving coffee swiftly and efficiently, without compromising on quality.

If you think you are that person we would love to hear from you!

Please email jobs@e5bakehouse.com with your CV and Cover Letter to apply.

*We may decide to close applications early if we receive enough applications.

Sous Chef

An exciting opportunity to work alongside our talented Head Chef, leading a team of skilled, creative chefs. We offer excellent work–life balance with predominantly day shifts and aim to keep hours to 40 per week.

You’ll support the Head Chef across our service kitchen in Hackney and production kitchen supplying two other sites, plus daily catering and weekend brunch. The role includes contributing to seasonal menus, catering, and events, with scope for creative recipe development.

We champion seasonal, organic British produce and make as much as possible in-house – from jams and marmalades to pickles, ferments, and condiments.

This position is perfect for an experienced Senior CDP, or someone who already has Sous Chef experience who’s looking to step back from the stress of restaurant kitchens and/or evening shifts. We want someone who can make an impact, working with our Head Chef to improve systems, nurturing and training our team as we move forwards.
