This is an opportunity to build your management career in a premium hospitality environment, with the stability, working conditions and lifestyle that can be difficult to find in traditional restaurant and late-night venues.
Why join us?
The Kew Golf Club is one of Melbourne's leading private golf clubs, located just 15 minutes from the CBD. Our hospitality team provides a warm, professional and contemporary experience for members and their guests across our clubhouse dining, bar, functions and events.

- Free on-site parking
About the role
Reporting to the Food & Beverage Manager, you will help lead the day-to-day operation of our front-of-house team and ensure our members and guests consistently receive a high standard of service.

Your responsibilities will include
- Leading the front-of-house team during daily service, functions and events
- Acting as the senior hospitality manager on duty when required

- Assisting with stock control and operational administration

About you
You may already be working as an Assistant Food & Beverage Manager or Assistant Venue Manager, or you may be an experienced Restaurant Supervisor, Duty Manager or F&B; Supervisor who is ready to take the next step. We are more interested in your leadership capability, service standards and attitude than your current job title.

- Strong experience in a quality hospitality environment
- Demonstrated ability to lead and motivate a front-of-house team
- A genuine passion for delivering excellent service
- A warm, professional and confident communication style
- Strong organisation and attention to detail

Experience in a quality restaurant, hotel, events venue, private club or similar environment would be highly regarded. Previous golf club experience is not required.
