Head Chef
Visa sponsorship
Hospitality · Perth, WA, Australia · Full-Time · Discussed at interview · Visa: Employer sponsored
Perth, Western Australia, has a riverside café that opens for breakfast and lunch only, and its owners are searching for a seasoned Senior Chef or Kitchen Lead to run the pass and the people around it. Hours stay in the daytime with no evening work, but weekends are essential.
The lead keeps service flowing, steadies the team on busy mornings and protects the standard of the food: consistent plates, good presentation and sound quality every day. Employer sponsorship may be available for an exceptional candidate, subject to experience, performance, suitability and applicable visa requirements.
Leadership is what a café owner will look for first, so show on your CV how many cooks you have supervised and which menus you have managed. A site such as Build AI CV can help shape a head chef's CV before you apply.
