Job Description
At Guzman y Gomez, we don't just make food — we grow leaders. And now, we're giving you the opportunity to help bring an entirely new GYG to life from the kitchen out.
n
We're opening a brand-new restaurant in Cranebrook in June, and we're looking for an experienced Head Cook to help build, train and lead the kitchen team that will bring our food to life.
n
This is a rare opportunity to step into a leadership role where you're not just cooking — you're helping create a kitchen and culture from the ground up.
n
As a Head Cook, you'll be trusted to:
n
n
Build and lead a brand-recent kitchen team, supporting the restaurant leadership team with hands‐on training before the restaurant even opens.
n
Set the standard for food quality, speed and consistency from day one, ensuring every dish reflects GYG's bold flavours and fresh ingredients.
n
Support the full restaurant opening, including prep, training, operational readiness and opening execution.
n
Work closely with the Restaurant Manager and leadership team to ensure smooth operations, strong communication and a positive team culture.
n
Be part of a fast‐growing global brand that's redefining fast food with real ingredients,



authentic flavours and a bold vision.
n
Grow your career — this role is a pathway into senior kitchen leadership, Assistant Restaurant Management or broader operational roles.
n
n
Opening a new restaurant is one of the most rewarding experiences at GYG — and as Head Cook, you'll be right at the heart of it.
n
We'll back you with the tools, support and rewards you need to succeed:
n
n
Flexible rosters and long‐term stability — let's talk about what balance means to you
n
Structured training program and ongoing development to sharpen your leadership skills
n
Heavily discounted GYG meals (yes, every burrito)
n
Free uniforms and exclusive GYG merch
n
Cultural celebrations including Day of the Dead & Cinco de Mayo
n
Employee assistance program (Sonder) for you and your family
n
Clear pathways into Assistant Restaurant Management, Restaurant Management or broader GYG opportunities
n
n
And of course — the chance to help open a brand-new GYG, something only a handful of leaders get to experience each year.
n
Ready to lead the opening of GYG Cranebrook? Apply now.
