About Teman

Teman owns and operates retirement villages across Australia. Our focus is simple. We create communities where people feel connected, supported, and part of something.

At Greenwood, food plays a big role in that. A good meal can genuinely make someone’s day.

The Role

We're looking for an experienced cook or Catering Supervisor to join our kitchen at Greenwood by Teman.

This is a hands-on role where you'll be cooking for our residents as well as helping keep the kitchen organised and running smoothly. We're particularly keen to find someone who'd like to take the lead in the kitchen, looking after things like menus, ordering, stock and the general day-to-day running of things.

Our kitchen operates seven days a week and we're open to how we structure the roster around the right people. You might be looking for a regular four or five days a week, a couple of consistent days, or weekend work that fits around other commitments.

Hours and Pay

$35 per hour, plus applicable penalty rates

Our kitchen operates seven days a week and we're versatile on how we structure the roster around the right people.

Most shifts are 9:00am to 2:00pm, with one 6:00am to 2:00pm shift each week. There are no late nights.

You might be looking for a regular four or five days a week, a couple of consistent days, or weekend work that fits around other commitments.

Tell us what days you're available and we'll see if we can make it work.
