Full Job Description

About the role

We’re seeking a Cold Larder Chef / Cook, depending on experience, to join our award-winning kitchen team.

This role is hands-on, technical, and leadership-focused. You’ll be running sections, working the pass, mentoring junior chefs and apprentices, and driving consistency and quality through every service.

You’ll need to thrive in a high-performance kitchen, where we work hard, support each other, and deliver every plate with pride.

About us the business

Snapper Rocks isn’t your average kitchen.
We don’t reheat pre-purchased food. We start from scratch every day – breaking down whole fish, making bisques, jus and stocks, grilling over charcoal, and celebrating the very best local produce the Northern Territory has to offer.

We’re known for wild-caught seafood, grass-fed beef, free-range chicken and vibrant local produce – cooked with fire, care and creativity.

Our home is the Darwin Waterfront, and our style is contemporary Australian cuisine with a relaxed beachside energy. We’ve been awarded Best Seafood Restaurant NT, and we continue to push ourselves every service.

If you’re an experienced chef who cares deeply about food, about mentoring others, and about showcasing produce at its absolute best, this role is for you.

Key Responsibilities

Lead a section (larder, or pass) with confidence and skill
Supervise and train junior chefs and apprentices
Prepare, season, and cook dishes to the highest standard, showcasing NT produce
Break down seafood and meat, prepare stocks, jus, and sauces from scratch
Maintain quality and presentation of dishes at every stage of service
Plan menus and specials in collaboration with the Head Chef and team
Place and receive supplier orders, maintain prep levels and par systems
Ensure compliance with food safety, hygiene, and workplace standards
Be proactive, hands-on, and a leader in the kitchen culture

What We’re Looking For

Strong background in quality restaurants (essential)
Proven experience at Chef de Partie level or above (senior station lead / junior sous)
Supervisory and training experience (desirable)
Deep respect for produce and a passion for cooking from scratch
Calm, composed, and professional under pressure
A chef with drive, urgency, and an eye for detail
Someone who thrives on collaboration and team success

Benefits & Perks

Work at the beautiful Darwin Waterfront – views and lifestyle included
Be part of a professional, passionate kitchen team with high standards and strong camaraderie
Develop your skills with a wide variety of produce and cooking techniques
Genuine career growth opportunities within our group of restaurants
A venue open 11.30am–11pm daily, allowing for better work/life balance
Work in a kitchen where local produce, creativity and professionalism actually matter

Pay: $70,000.00 – $80,000.00 per year

Benefits:

Employee mentoring program
Visa sponsorship
