Full Job Description

Join the team behind The Apollo, Cho Cho San, Olympus Dining, Greca and Yoko to lead one of two new restaurants opening this Spring.

17th July, 2026

The Apollo Restaurant Group is the independent hospitality group behind some of Australia's most loved restaurants — The Apollo, Cho Cho San, Olympus Dining, Greca and Yoko. For more than a decade, across Sydney and Brisbane, we've created neighbourhood restaurants people are proud to call their own — built on generous hospitality, exceptional food and genuine connection. We're independent and we build restaurants to last, not to chase trends.

This October we're opening two new restaurants in Surry Hills — one French, one Japanese — and we're looking for an exceptional Head Chef to lead each kitchen from the very beginning.

About the Roles

These are rare opportunities to shape a restaurant before the first guest walks through the door. Working alongside our culinary leadership team, you'll develop the opening menu, recruit and mentor your team, and create the kitchen culture that will define your team for years to come. Once open, you'll lead every aspect of the kitchen — balancing creativity with commercial performance and delivering exceptional food every service.

You'll bring

Head Chef experience in a premium or hatted high-volume venue
A strong grounding in French or Japanese cooking
Leadership built on respect - we take how our kitchens feel to work in as seriously as what they send out
Commercial sharpness - you can read reports, write a roster, and hit a food cost without cutting corners
Opening experience is a bonus, not a requirement

What you'll get in return

We believe great restaurants are built by great people, and we back that up. Many of our senior leaders have grown within the group, and with two new venues opening and more ahead, there's real room to build a career here — not just fill a role.

Real input into menu development, working closely with our culinary leadership team
A competitive salary package negotiated on experience
Mentoring from, and collaboration with our Director and Development chefs
Career progression across a growing group in Sydney and Brisbane
Dining discounts across all our venues

If you're ready for the opportunity to lead a new restaurant from day one, we'd love to hear from you. Apply now with your CV.
