HEAD CHEF — HELLO PLEASE
Hello Please is looking for a Head Chef to take the lead in our kitchen.
We’re a busy Contemporary Australian-Asian restaurant in Fish Lane, South Brisbane, with a focus on big flavours, good produce and food that’s fun to eat without being overcomplicated.
We’re looking for someone who can take real ownership of the kitchen — leading the team, maintaining standards, managing food and labour costs, ordering and rostering, and working with us to keep developing the menu.
You’ll suit the role if you’re an experienced Sous Chef ready to step up, or an existing Head Chef looking for a kitchen where you can have genuine input and make the role your own.
What we’re looking for:
- Strong kitchen leadership and organisation
- Experience running a busy service
- Solid understanding of food and wage costs
- Consistency and attention to detail
- Confidence training and developing junior chefs
- Someone reliable, level-headed and good to work with
- An genuine interest in menu development and food is a big plus
This is a hands-on role. We’re not looking for someone to stand at the pass with a clipboard - you’ll be cooking, leading service and working alongside the team.
What we offer:
- Full-time position
- Competitive salary based on experience
- Input into menu development
- Established restaurant and kitchen systems
- Support from experienced chef/owners
- A small, close-knit team
- Fish Lane / South Brisbane location
If you’re interested, send through your CV and a little about yourself and what you’re looking for in your next role.
