About us

The Queens Head Hotel is an established pub on Elizabeth Street in North Hobart, serving lunch and dinner seven days a week alongside a busy public bar. Our kitchen turns out honest, well-executed pub food at volume — roughly 450 to 500 plates a week — with a small, tight team and a strong focus on consistency, freshness and cost control.

Planning, costing and developing menus and daily specials in line with budgeted gross profit targets
Preparing, seasoning and cooking food to order across all sections during lunch and dinner service
Controlling the pass and ensuring consistency, presentation and timing across all outgoing plates
Ordering stock, receiving deliveries, managing supplier relationships and controlling food cost and wastage
Portion control, stocktake and inventory management
Rostering, supervising and training kitchen staff, including apprentices and kitchen hands
Maintaining full compliance with food safety, HACCP and workplace health and safety requirements, including temperature records, cleaning schedules and allergen management
Catering for functions and group bookings, including set menus for groups of 15 or more
Working with venue management on kitchen performance, labour cost and menu profitability

Skills and experience required

Essential:

A minimum of three years' post-qualification experience as a Chef in a commercial kitchen
Certificate III in Commercial Cookery (AQF Certificate III or higher), or an equivalent overseas qualification, or demonstrated equivalent experience
Proven ability to cook to order at volume across multiple sections during a busy service
Demonstrated experience in menu planning, food costing and stock control
Current knowledge of food safety and HACCP requirements, and the ability to maintain records to a commercial standard
Experience supervising and training kitchen staff
Availability to work a rotating roster including evenings, weekends and public holidays

Desirable:

Food Safety Supervisor certification
Experience in a high-volume pub, hotel or bistro kitchen
Experience with functions and group catering
Experience managing kitchen labour to a budget

What we offer

Full-time permanent position, 38 hours per week
$79,500 per annum plus superannuation
A stable, established venue with a supportive management team
Genuine input into the menu and how the kitchen is run
