A role that works for life
We know great hospitality professionals come from all walks of life and at different stages of their careers. Whether you're looking for
career progression, greater work‐life balance, a fresh challenge, or simply a kitchen where your experience is valued
, this could be the opportunity you've been waiting for.
Monday to Friday. Daytime hours. No late‐night finishes. No weekend roster.
Just great food, a great environment and the opportunity to make an impact in a vibrant education community.
