Contribute to creative menu planning, event themes, and special dietary requirements
Maintain food safety and hygiene standards across all environments
Help deliver and evolve GemLife’s signature culinary experiences such as GemLife Eats and SMEG showcases
Be flexible to travel across events, resorts, and venues as required
Step into the lead chef role when required, including during periods of leave or concurrent events

What you'll bring:

Minimum 3+ years’ experience as a chef, sous chef or catering chef
Relevant commercial cookery qualification
Passion for event catering and delivering exceptional culinary experiences
Strong organisational skills and calm under pressure
Experience working offsite in varied venues and adapting to mobile kitchen setups
High attention to food presentation, quality and service consistency
Food safety certification and understanding of allergen management
Team player mindset with a flexible and solutions-focused approach

Why Join GemLife?

Be part of a supportive, friendly, and fast-growing team
Work in a beautiful resort environment
Enjoy part-time hours with the opportunity to grow with the company
Make a meaningful impact on the homeowner experience
Opportunities for career progression and professional development
