Experienced Chefs – Aged Care Facilities | Immediate Start
Temp/Casual Contract
At Energy Staff, we specialise in delivering high-quality hospitality professionals to aged care providers across Brisbane and regional Queensland.

What We're Looking For:
Minimum 5+ years' experience as a Chef, ideally with aged care or healthcare kitchen exposure
Cert III in Commercial Cookery or higher
Strong, practical understanding of texture-modified meals (IDDSI levels), pureed and minced diets, and therapeutic/special diets
Experience catering to high dietary and allergen complexity across a resident group
Confidence managing high-volume, consistent service within aged care rostering and meal-time structures
Current Police Check (NDIS/aged care worker screening highly regarded)
Reliable transport
Genuine care for resident wellbeing — patience, compassion, and an understanding of the aged care environment




Ability to step into a facility kitchen and hit the ground running with minimal supervision
What's On Offer:
Immediate starts available
Ongoing casual/temp opportunities across multiple aged care sites
Level 4 – 6 rates + penalties
Flexibility to choose shifts that suit your lifestyle
Consistent, ongoing work with reputable aged care providers
Supportive team with real hospitality industry experience
Why Join Energy Staff?
We're not your typical labour hire company.
Our team comes from hospitality backgrounds, meaning we understand kitchens, service standards, and the importance of sending the right chef to the right site.
We focus on quality over quantity — providing reliable, experienced chefs who understand the unique demands of aged care and can genuinely add value from day one.
If you're a professional chef looking for adaptable work with a company that understands the industry, we'd love to hear from you.
