Company: Humble Crumble – The World's First Crumble Bakery
Job Type: Full-Time
Salary: £55,000
Summary of Role
This is a rare opportunity to be our first in-house marketing hire. You'll be helping to shape strategy, working with our existing social media team, and getting hands-on to deliver campaigns that make Humble Crumble a globally recognised brand.
In the short term, you'll focus on social media strategy, brand partnerships, community building and in-bakery marketing. Over time, this role will expand into retail marketing and performance marketing for e-commerce as we expand this area of the business. This marketing position has the potential to grow into a senior leadership role as we scale nationally and globally.
If you're a marketer who wants to make your mark, move quickly with decision-making, and see the real impact of your work, this is the role for you.
Who we are:
At Humble Crumble, we don't just bake desserts - we reinvent them. From trifle-crumble hybrids to pumpkin spice crumbles served inside pumpkins, to the world's first cold crumbles, we're always pushing boundaries and having fun while we do it.
We're proud to be the world's first crumble bakery. Others may follow, but we set the pace. Our mission is twofold: to be the leader in crumble, and to be a leader in hospitality. We want to show that hospitality is an exciting, rewarding career, and our bakeries are warm, welcoming spaces that reflect that.
With five bakeries thriving, supermarket launches ahead, and big plans for national and international expansion, we want to bring crumble joy to more people than ever before.
What you'll do:
Social Media & Content Direction- Define the creative vision for Humble Crumble across all platforms
- Work with our social media team on what to capture, how to refine it, and how to make it resonate
- Stay ahead of trends and occasionally capture content yourself
Brand & Community
- Build a stronger community and ensure our voice resonates online and in person
- Grow and protect our playful, innovative brand identity
- Ensure every touchpoint - from social feeds to bakery posters - reflects our hospitality-first ethos
- Strengthen our newsletter and customer communications, making them engaging and valuable
E-Commerce & Partnerships
- Lead brand collaborations and partnerships (we have major ones in the pipeline)
- Help shape our launch into supermarkets and explore e-commerce opportunities
- Oversee updates to our website and improve the customer journey (UX design)
What we're looking for:
- 3-5+ years' marketing experience, ideally with food, FMCG, supermarkets, or lifestyle brands
- Strong track record in social media direction - you know what's cool, what resonates, and what converts
- Experience managing freelancers or agencies, and giving clear creative direction
- Skilled in Shopify and Canva, with a curiosity for AI-powered tools
- Experience with newsletters/CRM, partnerships, or events is a plus
- Hungry to grow: you want to take ownership, prove yourself, and progress as the company scales
- Above all: creative, kind, ambitious and relentless in execution
Why join us:
- Impact: As our first in-house marketer, you'll shape how the world experiences Humble Crumble
- Growth: We're expanding nationwide and internationally - this role will grow as fast as we do
- Culture: We're a kind, fun, ambitious team that values hospitality and creativity
- Innovation: You'll market products no one else is making - from frozen custards to pumpkin crumbles
- Mission: Be part of a company leading in hospitality and defining an entire dessert category
Growth & progression:
This is your chance to be part of a small company and help it grow to a medium-sized company. You are not a cog in a wheel. You're an invaluable member that will contribute and witness the power and impact of your work, learning and experiencing what it takes to grow a company in a competitive market. We'd love to have ambitious people as part of this journey.
Some of our benefits:
- Private medical insurance (opt-in)
- Free crumble (naturally)
- Free CBT therapy through our wellness provider
- Fancy office-based role in central London, working alongside the team
If you're ready to lead marketing for the world's first crumble bakery, help set the pace for an entire category, and showcase hospitality as an extraordinary career, send your CV, portfolio and a cover video telling us why you'd love to be a part of the HC team to careers@humble-crumble.com.

Who we need: Part-time
Location: Bicester Village
Start date: ASAP
Contract type: Fixed Term for 6 months initially
We are looking for kind, inclusive and confident people to join a new team (our first one outside of London)!
Baker / Crumble Artist: The role is a mixture of Front of House and Kitchen work. We start everyone off in the customer service role and then when you become confident in this space, we'll teach you how to bake our delicious crumbles.
Any Humble Crumble team member will be working in a fast-paced but exciting role. It requires being positive, approachable person with an eye for detail. Customer service is as important as the crumbles we serve, so the successful applicant needs to understand what makes a meaningful customer experience.
You need to be:
A people person - yes, you need to love to chat to our customers, make them feel super welcome and help them make the right crumble decision (although, we don't think there's a ‘wrong’ one).
A crumble LOVER - you love crumble and think it’s THE best dessert in the world. When you eat a crumble you think, ‘what’s missing/how can we make this better’.
A lover of change - we don’t like to sit still at Humble Crumble, we’re always working on what to do next, creating new seasonal specials, how can we improve, what hasn’t the world tasted yet and how can we give it to them.
A multi-tasker - we proudly hand make everything here at Humble Crumble and need someone who can help keep the kitchen running seamlessly during busy service.
Friendly and engaging - our customers are like friends and we love to make them feel welcome. Humble Crumble should feel like home for our staff and customers.
Detail oriented - it's vital that each crumble looks as good as it tastes and in our opinion, there's no such thing as too many toppings!
A lover of a fast paced environment - our amazing customers travel far and wide for our crumbles and will queue for hours (literally) if necessary. This means we need to work quickly and efficiently whilst maintaining our excellent standards.
A passionate foodie - how can you help our customers choose the right (there is no wrong) crumble for their palette? Can you describe flavours for someone who may never have tried our product?
Equal Opportunity:
Humble Crumble is an equal opportunity employer. We pride ourselves in creating an environment where diversity is celebrated, equality is insisted and inclusion expected. We believe in having the right person in the role; and personality, individuality and uniqueness top the list of what we are looking for in applications and throughout our hiring process.
