    WHO WE ARE

    Hotels done differently. It's not just a slogan or catchphrase, it is who we are in everything we do. We believe in the power of People, Place, and Character; ensuring our properties are a place where individuals are valued and celebrated as a tribute to the neighborhoods and the people of the communities in which we operate; elevating our associates' pride in who they are, where they live and who we serve.

    Hewing Hotel is in Minneapolis' vibrant North Loop neighborhood, more commonly known as the Warehouse District, joining cultural stalwarts Traffic Zone Center for Visual Arts and Target Field, home to baseball's Minnesota Twins. With easy access to all interstates as well as Minneapolis' Metro Transit Blue Line and Northstar Commuter Rail, The Hewing sits at the literal crossroads of the Twin Cities. While Minneapolis presents a plethora of hospitality options, none tap into the local culture to create importance and significance beyond the business traveler. The Hewing occupies the historic Jackson Building, originally built in 1897, at the gateway to the Warehouse District, immediately tying it to local culture like no other competitor.

    Since its founding, Aparium has grown into a new kind of hotel brand, one that ventures off the beaten path, both geographically and philosophically. It is a sophisticated hotel brand known for its singular ability to combine the business acumen of large hospitality companies with the charm of boutique hotels, bringing the disparate forces together in bustling, smaller markets.

    WHO YOU ARE

    Your past experiences have led you to understand that there is an art + science to the how and what of a culinary professional. You are a self-motivated and driven individual who is committed to your chosen profession and are developing an obsessive nature when it comes to making-and crossing things off-lists. You have experience with mixing batters, doughs, and custards and are looking to continue to hone your pastry acumen. You are obsessive about butter-fat content and are beginning to understand the importance of a well-balanced ice cream formulation. You have always enjoyed playing with your ingredients and are ready for a next level understanding of the perfect croissant. You crave the camaraderie of a dynamic team and have been known to use the phrase, "Teamwork makes the dream work"

    THE ROLE

    The Pastry Cook reports to the Executive Chef and Sous Chefs (Culinary Leadership Team), developing and executing complete recipes and bakery items - desserts, breads and pastries.

The Pastry Cook is a task-oriented and list-driven individual who is comfortable working under the direction of the Pastry Sous Chef.

The Pastry Cook will actively develop trusting and transparent relationships with their peers, both in the kitchen and throughout the hotel. They will have the opportunity to work with a phenomenal group of individuals with whom collaboration, humility and open-minds are the norm-no egos are allowed. The ability to work with controlled measure and respect for your leadership team and peers is imperative; we have a no-tolerance policy for the "old school way".
