We’re looking for a highly versatile, hands‑on Head Chef to step into a Tournant (relief) role supporting venues across Central Queensland.

This is not your typical Head Chef role - this position is suited to someone who thrives on variety, can walk into any kitchen and take control, build teams up, stabilise kitchens, and support venues when they need it most.

If you like change, challenge, and being the person who can walk in and make a difference - this role is for you.

The Role:

As a Tournant Head Chef, you will move between venues across Rockhampton, Mackay, Bundaberg and Clermont, supporting kitchens with:

Covering Head Chef leave

Menu and food cost support

Bringing structure, leadership and stability to kitchens

What’s on offer:

Fuel allowance provided

Accommodation provided when working away





Company support and autonomy in the role

Opportunity to work across multiple venues and teams

Strong support from the Area Chef and Operations teams

What we need from you:

Proven experience as a Head Chef

Highly organised and able to walk into recent kitchens and lead immediately

Solid knowledge of food cost, labour and kitchen systems

Excellent leadership and communication skills

Must have a car and be willing to travel

Must be versatile and able to work across different venues and teams

This role suits someone with minimal personal commitments and a flexible lifestyle

This is a unique role and a great opportunity for a strong operator who enjoys variety, problem solving and making an impact across multiple venues.
