Gami Carnegie is part of Australia’s leading Korean fried chicken restaurant group, renowned for delivering authentic Korean flavours, exceptional customer service, and high-quality dining experiences. We are seeking an experienced and motivated Cook to join our kitchen team on a permanent full time basis.
This is a hands-on cooking role in a fast-paced restaurant environment. You will work across Korean and Western menu items, contribute to a kitchen that takes its food seriously, and be part of a team that has been doing this well.
Key Responsibilities
- Inspect incoming ingredients and foodstuffs before they reach the prep bench, ensuring nothing below standard makes it into a dish
- Prepare and cook Korean and Western menu items to recipe specification across service, maintaining the consistency the kitchen is known for
- Season dishes correctly throughout cooking, not just at the end, with a palate developed enough to know the difference
- Manage oven, grill, and fryer temperatures actively during service, adjusting as needed rather than setting and forgetting
- Plate and portion food to spec, adding sauces, garnishes, and accompaniments so every dish leaves the kitchen looking the way it should
- Store food correctly in temperature-controlled facilities, maintaining food safety compliance and protecting ingredient quality between services
- Prepare dishes to accommodate dietary requirements accurately and without cross-contamination, taking customer requests seriously
- Assist with menu planning and food requirement estimates where directed, contributing practical kitchen knowledge to production decisions
- Maintain food safety, hygiene, and cleanliness standards throughout every shift in line with Australian Food Safety requirements
- Monitor stock levels, manage rotation, and flag gaps before they affect service
- Receive and verify incoming deliveries against orders, checking quality and quantities on arrival
- Bring junior kitchen staff and apprentices along where required, sharing knowledge without it slowing the kitchen down
Skill & Experience
- Minimum two years of commercial cooking experience, with exposure to Korean cuisine a genuine advantage
- Certificate III in Commercial Cookery or equivalent qualification, or demonstrated experience in lieu
- Comfortable working at pace in a busy restaurant kitchen without the standard of your work slipping
- Sound knowledge of food safety practices and the discipline to apply them consistently
- Well organised and able to manage your prep and production time effectively across a shift
- Available to work evenings, weekends, and public holidays as required
- A reliable team player who communicates well and holds their own during a busy service
