Full Job Description

Company Description

Introducing something new in Australian hospitality.

The Saint Hotel is a village of venues designed to support the neighbourhood, a contemporary St Kilda institution built around hospitality, culture and connection. Spanning multiple bars, dining spaces, terraces and event areas, The Saint brings together the energy, eclecticism and social spirit that has long defined Fitzroy Street.

We’re not just opening venues, we’re creating places that bring people together. Experience-led in its approach, the venue is designed to feel woven into the fabric of St Kilda: somewhere locals can settle into regularly, visitors can discover naturally, and the neighbourhood can gather from day through to late night.

Build a positive, motivated and professional kitchen culture

About You

You’re an experienced, hands‑on kitchen leader who leads by example. You take pride in both people development and operational excellence. You’ll also bring:

5+ years' experience in professional commercial kitchens
Proven experience as a Head Chef
Strong leadership and communication skills
A calm, structured approach under pressure
A sound understanding of Australia food safety and WHS requirements
Availability across nights, weekends and rotating rosters

Why Join Us
