Be part of the next chapter of an iconic St Kilda venue.
The Prince of Wales is undergoing an exciting transformation, with a brand-new rooftop experience set to launch above Acland Street.
We're building a kitchen team to bring this new concept to life - a vibrant rooftop destination combining elevated pub food, cocktails, music and the best of St Kilda's atmosphere.
Think modern pub favourites, dishes made to share and a menu designed for everything from relaxed afternoons to buzzing late-night sessions.
About the Rooftop
The new rooftop will have a modern, funky fit-out with plenty of personality - relaxed enough for a casual afternoon, but elevated enough for a night out.
The offering will include:
Elevated pub fare and dishes made to share
A full dining menu catering to groups and casual diners
Corporate events, functions and social celebrations
Relaxed afternoon sessions that build into lively evenings
Jazz, vinyl and DJs throughout the week
A high-energy rooftop atmosphere overlooking St Kilda
We're looking for Chefs who:
Love working in busy, high-energy kitchens
Have experience across pubs, restaurants, rooftops or high-volume venues
Take pride in quality, consistency and presentation
Can work confidently across a varied menu
Bring a positive attitude and enjoy being part of a team
Want to be part of a recent venue concept from the ground up
Whether you're an experienced Sous Chef, Chef de Partie, Pizza Chef, Demi Chef, Commis Chef or Kitchen Porter, there are opportunities to join the team and grow with the venue.
