Potts Point, Sydney An fire-led grill restaurant located in Potts Point. A 1.2-metre gas char grill sits at the centre of the kitchen. The menu is built around what fire does best, clean smoke, controlled char, and precise sauce and flavour pairing across premium proteins.
Backed by an established Sydney restaurant group.
The role
You'll run the kitchen day-to-day, leading a small brigade (Sous/Grill CDP, Demi/KH Hybrid, casual Commis) across Wednesday–Saturday dinner. You'll work alongside the Executive Chef on menu development, costing, ordering and quality control, and own the grill program end to end from marinade and cure schedules to service-line consistency.
What you'll bring
- Minimum 10 years professional kitchen experience, with significant time at Head Chef or senior CDP level
- Deep expertise on live-fire cooking, char grill, konro, hibachi, wood embers. You know how proteins behave over fire and how to hold a service line without losing precision
- Solid protein knowledge across beef, lamb, pork and seafood; confidence with premium cuts,
MB scoring and primal breakdown
- A genuine feel for sauce and flavour pairing, you build plates where the sauce sharpens the protein rather than sits beside it
- A restrained hand. Nothing on the plate that doesn't earn its place
- Clean, calm leadership. Small brigade, tight kitchen, no theatrics
- Knowledgeable about Thai or Asian Cuisine
- Australian working rights
What we offer
- $100,000 gross per annum (approximately $1,500 per week after tax), plus superannuation
- 38–40 hours per week including weekends
