Job description

Sous Chef needed at a busy country pub in regional Queensland. It is a permanent, full-time job in charge of the kitchen, reporting to the Head Chef.

The key facts are short. The pub puts out roughly 1,000 plates a week, service runs at lunch and dinner on seven days, and you lead a small team of one Cook and three Chefs de Partie. If you need a work visa, note that 482 sponsorship leading to permanent residency is on offer for the right candidate.

Want to apply fast? Open your CV with the biggest kitchen you have led, add the weekly volume you handled, and polish your Sous Chef CV in Build AI CV before you send it. Short, clear and specific wins.

Key responsibilities

  • Be the leader of the kitchen brigade and watch over its work
  • Keep the kitchen running smoothly from the lunch rush to the last dinner order, all seven days
  • Line up prep, cooking and service so nothing waits
  • Keep the food, the plating and the portions consistent
  • Own the prep lists, stock rotation, orders and waste
  • Meet food safety and workplace safety standards and keep the kitchen team trained, coached and growing

Requirements

  • Proven history in a Sous Chef, Assistant Kitchen Manager or senior kitchen supervisor role
  • Time spent in a commercial pub kitchen, producing about 1,000 meals a week or more
  • Strong leadership, and able to own kitchen operations without constant supervision
  • Sound knowledge of food costs, portion control and stock management
