Full Job Description

Catering Head Chef / Kitchen Operations Lead

Full-Time | Marrickville, Sydney
Salary: $85,000–$95,000 plus superannuation, depending on experience
Five-day roster: four weekdays and one weekend day
Visa sponsorship may be available for the right candidate

Gusto Catering & Events is looking for an experienced, hands-on Catering Head Chef to oversee the day-to-day operation of our busy production kitchen in Marrickville.

Working under the direction of our Executive Chef, you will lead daily kitchen operations, coordinate catering production and manage the kitchen team. You will ensure every order is prepared accurately, consistently and on time.

This is a hands-on leadership role focused on kitchen operations, production and team management. Menu development and menu writing are not major responsibilities, as our Executive Chef oversees the overall menu direction and our core menus are already established.

The role

Your responsibilities will include:

Working closely with and reporting to the Executive Chef
Managing the day-to-day operation of the catering kitchen
Planning and coordinating daily catering production
Leading and allocating tasks to chefs, kitchen hands and production staff
Preparing food and working alongside the team during busy periods
Ensuring orders are produced accurately, consistently and on schedule
Reviewing upcoming functions and organising production requirements
Coordinating preparation for corporate catering, private events and large functions
Managing stock levels, ordering and food rotation
Monitoring food costs, portion control and kitchen wastage
Maintaining food-safety, cleanliness and compliance standards
Ensuring dietary and allergen requirements are followed correctly
Assisting with event preparation and attending selected off-site events when required
Communicating with the events and operations teams to ensure smooth service delivery

About you

We are looking for someone who:

Has strong experience in catering, functions, events, large-scale production or a high-volume kitchen
Has worked as a Head Chef, Sous Chef, Production Chef or senior catering chef
Is comfortable working under the direction of an Executive Chef while taking ownership of daily kitchen operations
Is highly organised and confident managing multiple orders and deadlines
Can lead a kitchen team while remaining hands-on
Understands production planning, portion control, food costs and waste management
Has excellent attention to detail and takes pride in consistent presentation
Is confident managing dietary requirements and allergens
Remains calm and solutions-focused during busy periods
Is reliable, punctual and willing to take responsibility for the kitchen
Holds relevant commercial cookery qualifications and current food-safety knowledge
Has a valid driver’s licence; an RSA would also be beneficial

Roster

This is a full-time, five-day position, generally consisting of:

Four weekdays
One weekend day for event preparation or service

Some flexibility will be required depending on the event schedule. This is primarily a daytime production role, although occasional early starts or evening events may be required.

Visa sponsorship

Visa sponsorship may be available for an experienced and suitably qualified candidate who meets the relevant eligibility requirements.

Applicants requiring sponsorship should clearly outline their current visa status, qualifications and Australian work experience when applying.

This position would suit a capable senior chef who enjoys leading an organised kitchen and wants the responsibility of managing daily operations, while still having the guidance and support of an experienced Executive Chef.

To apply, please submit your résumé with a short introduction outlining your catering, production-kitchen or event experience. Please also include your current working rights or visa status.

Pay: $85,000.00 – $95,000.00 per year
