Join an ambitious, growing hospitality group inspired by Japanese craftsmanship and a passion for excellence.

Established in 2020, Azabu Group is a vertically integrated hospitality collective dedicated to challenging perceptions and exceeding expectations. With an expanding portfolio of premium dining destinations across the Sydney CBD, North Sydney, and Chatswood, we are seeking talented Back of House professionals to join our culinary teams.

This is a rare prospect to work within a high-growth group that values technical skill, creativity, and a commitment to the highest standards of the craft.

About Five

FIVE is built on a single commitment - the ingredient at its peak. Each plate begins with what is in season and is guided by the craft that best honours it: dashi or sauce, live fire or koji, charcuterie or kombu, fermentation or raw.

Technique is never imposed. It is chosen.

Drawn from a globally trained kitchen, grounded in Japanese discipline, the experience pays homage to wabi sabi. Restraint, transience, and the quiet rhythm of nature in cycle. Vegetables, grains, seafood and protein are treated with equal importance, the room, menu and service held to the same care, supporting the ingredient at its centre.
