Maintenance Technician
Dulmatesa is a family-owned industrial bakery and pastry group with nearly a century of history.
We were founded in 1920 in Puente Genil as a small workshop; in 1950 we opened our first factory, and with the second generation, we modernized our processes and brought Andalusian flavors across Spain. In 2015, the third generation spearheaded the creation of the Dulmatesa Group, and in 2020 we incorporated the Navarrés plant (Valencia). Today, we operate from headquarters in Málaga and two production centers—Puente Genil and Navarrés—that supply large-scale retail with integrated solutions, from raw materials to ready-to-enjoy finished products.
**We are a high-performance industrial company:** more than 400 professionals, coordinated shifts, rigorous standards, and strategic customers who trust our ability to meet deadlines, quality requirements, and food safety standards. Our growth—€100 million in revenue in 2024—is sustained by a culture that blends craftsmanship with professionalization.
We believe the best production system is the one built by people. Therefore, we nurture talent through clear and practical performance evaluations, personalized development pathways, and hands-on leadership on the shop floor. Our values—Quality, Efficiency, and Commitment; Teamwork, Flexibility, Leadership, and Exemplary Conduct; Nonconformity and Customer Orientation—guide every decision: we optimize resources, continuously improve each process, and place the customer at the center—without losing the human touch that defines us.
**Dulmatesa:** Growing with values, leading with commitment… and producing industrial pastries every day that reach millions of homes—consistently high-quality and scalable.
