We're looking for a qualified chef to join our kitchen at Asha. Ideally, you'll have around five years' experience, be confident running your own section in a fast-paced service, and have worked in an elevated restaurant where consistency, attention to detail and teamwork are second nature. But we're interested in more than just experience. We're looking for someone who's curious. Someone who wants to keep learning, enjoys working as part of a close-knit team, and wants to contribute to something that's continually evolving. A little about Asha... At Asha, we believe the best meals are about more than what's on the plate. They're about generosity. Sharing. Stories told around the table. The feeling of being welcomed, cared for and wanting to stay just a little longer. Our food is inspired by the hospitality, flavours and traditions of the Middle East and North Africa, interpreted through South Australian produce, Australian native ingredients, smoke, fire and contemporary technique. We're not trying to recreate tradition. We're asking what those values look like here, today, in Adelaide. As Head Chef, I believe great kitchens are built on respect, trust and collaboration. We're ambitious without the ego. We work hard, we challenge each other, we support one another, and we genuinely enjoy what we do. Because we're a small team, you'll have the opportunity to contribute far beyond your own section. You'll be encouraged to share ideas, be involved in menu development, experiment, learn and help shape where Asha goes next. I care just as much about developing great chefs as I do creating great dishes. If you're motivated, passionate and willing to grow, we'll invest in you.
