Baker/Pastry Cook | Full-Time, Year Round

Experience Lake Tahoe from our scenic waterfront resort, nestled in the Sierra Nevada mountains. At Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe, our Pastry team supports dining experiences throughout the resort, from restaurants and banquets to special events and guest amenities.

As a Pastry Cook, you will assist with the daily preparation and production of pastries, desserts, breads, baked goods, and specialty items in accordance with our Pastry Shop standards. This is a hands-on culinary role that requires attention to detail, consistency, and the ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced resort environment.

Because much of our pastry and bakery production takes place before the resort begins its day, this position requires flexibility to work very early morning shifts, in addition to weekends, holidays, and varying schedules based on business needs.
