Sous Chef
Visa sponsorship
Hospitality · Gold Coast, QLD, Australia · Full-Time · $80,000 - $85,000/yr · Visa: Employer sponsored
Brunch rushes on the Gold Coast do not slow down, and this high-volume cafe kitchen needs another leader to help keep pace. The new Sous Chef will share the running of things with the Head Chef and a fellow sous, steering daily operations and big services.
A proven sous, or a capable senior cook keen for the next rung, would fit well. The business is willing to consider sponsorship for the right candidate, who must have done similar work before and get through a 6-month probation period.
Cafe kitchens move fast, so show the covers you have pushed through, the sections you have run and the staff you have trained. Prep a Gold Coast brunch sous chef CV with Build AI CV that is quick to read.
