Visa sponsorship

Hospitality · Sunshine Coast, QLD, Australia · Full-Time · $85,000 - $95,000/yr · Visa: Employer sponsored

Fancy swapping the UK winter for a Queensland kitchen? An independently owned café on the Sunshine Coast, highly rated for its creative breakfast and lunch menu, is recruiting a full-time Chef. The owners care about quality ingredients, things made in-house and proper hospitality, and they work hands-on in the business.

They are flexible on experience. A seasoned Chef would suit, as would a Senior Cook ready to step up or someone working at Sous Chef or Head Chef level, and the role will be shaped around your skills and leadership potential. It is a fast, high-volume kitchen with mostly daytime shifts.

Potential employer sponsorship (the employer backing your work visa) is offered for suitable candidates, subject to the position and visa eligibility requirements.
