About MADÉ

MADÉ reinvents the classic French madeleine as a premium boutique-atelier — freshly opened on Lyndhurst Terrace, Central, and growing fast. Our batter is prepared the day before, rested overnight, then baked fresh throughout the day in our glass-walled kitchen behind the retail counter.

The role

One of our three Pastry Chefs. You autonomously run the daily baking of our madeleines in the glass atelier, in rotation with two colleagues — each fully able to cover the others' batches during leave or absence. You report to the Head of Production (recipes and quality standards).

Key responsibilities

• Bake our high-end madeleines (~1,500 pieces/day and growing); master the signature base batter and its variations.
• Own daily quality control: guarantee uniform, visually flawless and delicious results on every batch; absolute freshness (no day-old product sold the next day).
• Own stock management: monitor premium raw-material inventory, follow up orders and manage deliveries receiving so production never stops.
• Manage the morning bake and live counter replenishment.
• Keep a clinically clean, impeccably organised kitchen at all times (visible to the public through glass).
• Operate professional combi-ovens with precision; strictly respect the brand's trade secrets.

Candidate profile

• Pastry diploma (CAP, BTM or equivalent) or equivalent proven experience in pastry.
• Mastery of chemically-leavened and whipped batters; recognised for consistency and attention to detail.
• Dynamic, strong team player; fully reliable on early-morning starts.
• Languages: fluent English mandatory
• Right to work in Hong Kong (no visa sponsorship provided).

What we offer

• HKD 25,000/month + monthly performance bonus — up to HKD 28,000 total.
• 30% staff discount.
• Statutory benefits as per the HK Employment Ordinance (MPF, paid annual leave, statutory holidays, sick leave).
