The Oriana is a new, multi-level hospitality destination located within the Overseas Passenger Terminal at Circular Quay - one of Sydney’s most iconic waterfront locations. Designed as a modern, produce-driven venue, it brings together high-volume energy with a premium, refined dining experience.
At the centre of it is The Oriana Restaurant - a flagship dining space focused on local seafood, refined grill and elevated, seasonal menus.
We’re now looking for a Pastry Sous Chef to take full ownership of the dessert offering - from concept through to execution.
The Role
This is a leadership pastry position within an opening team - built for someone who wants to create, not just execute.
You will:
- Lead and run the pastry section across high-volume service
- Design and deliver a refined, modern dessert menu aligned to a produce-led concept
- Balance creativity with scalability - desserts that perform under pressure
- Work closely with the Head Chef and senior team on menu direction
- Build structure, systems and consistency from day one
- Manage prep,
ordering, costing and waste control
This is about setting the standard early - clean, sharp execution at volume.
What We’re Looking For
- Solid pastry background in quality, high-volume kitchens
- Experience developing and executing seasonal dessert menus
- A refined, modern style - balanced, produce-led, not overworked
- Proven ability to deliver consistency at scale
- Calm, organised and reliable under pressure
- Takes full ownership of their section
Why Join The Oriana
- Be part of a flagship Sydney venue launch in an iconic waterfront location
- Lead and create the dessert offering for The Oriana Restaurant
- Work within a large, structured, high-performing kitchen team
- Genuine input into menu direction and creative development
- A fast-paced, high-volume environment with a premium finish
The Opportunity
If you’re a Pastry Sous Chef ready to step into a role where your work defines the standard - not follows it - this is your chance.
