Full Job Description

Head Chef - Meraki Hospitality Group - Italian Restaurant

Meraki Hospitality Group is a Central Coast hospitality collective behind some of the region's most loved venues, including Kefi, Little Miss Terrigal, Motel Mezza, and Little Seed. We're also expanding, with an exciting new waterfront venue joining the group soon - bringing fresh opportunities for the right leaders to grow with us.

We're on the lookout for experienced Head Chefs to lead kitchens across our venues, with immediate and upcoming opportunities as our group continues to grow.

The Role

We're looking for Head Chefs who are both strong leaders and skilled, hands-on cooks. You'll lead a team of 6-8 (depending on venue and season), working beside them during service to maintain consistency and quality. Leadership, calm communication, and an ability to motivate your team are key.

This is a hands-on position - you'll be actively involved in service and training. Availability across evenings and weekends is essential, though flexibility exists as you build and develop a capable, well-trained team.

Key Responsibilities

Lead, train, and support a kitchen team of 6-8 team members
Deliver consistent, high-quality dishes aligned with the venue's concept and standards
Maintain COGS, labour, and ordering targets
Uphold kitchen organisation, compliance, and presentation standards
Foster a positive and professional team environment
Work closely with executive leadership on menu direction and operations
KPI driven bonuses available for up to 10% of annual salary

What You'll Bring

Proven experience as a Head Chef in a quality venue
Strong technical cooking skills and attention to detail
Level-headed leadership and team-building ability
Solid cost control and operational knowledge
Availability for evenings and weekends
A passion for hospitality, teamwork, and great food

Meraki Hospitality Group

Meraki is a people-first company. We value leaders who balance creativity with consistency, and who know how to bring out the best in their team. With new venues on the horizon, this is a great time to join a growing group and build something long-term.

If you're a skilled, steady professional who leads from the front and takes pride in every plate, we'd love to hear from you.

Pay: $80,000.00 – $90,000.00 per year
