  • Kitchen Support: Make sure there are always clean crockery, cutlery, pots, and pans available, so the kitchen runs without a hitch.
  • Team Player: Work alongside the cooks and kitchen team to maintain a fast, smooth workflow throughout each shift.

What We’re Looking For:

  • Multitasker Extraordinaire: You can juggle several tasks at once and stay organized in a busy kitchen environment.
  • Hands-On Attitude: You’re not afraid to roll up your sleeves and dive into any task—whether it's food prep or keeping things tidy.
  • Great Communicator: You’ve got excellent listening and verbal communication skills, making it easy to work with your team.
  • Team Spirit: You enjoy collaborating and supporting your teammates to get the job done efficiently.

What’s In It For You:

  • Training & Growth: No experience? No problem! We provide on-the-job training and opportunities to develop your skills across different kitchen roles.
  • Free Meals: Enjoy complimentary meals from our delicious menu during your shifts.
  • A Fun, Supportive Team: Be part of a positive, upbeat kitchen crew where teamwork and good vibes make every shift enjoyable.
  • Flexible Hours: With shifts rostered in advance, we offer flexibility to fit your schedule.
