Run your own section and help shape the food at voco Gosford, the Central Coast's newest hotel in The Archibald precinct!

At voco Gosford, modern elegance meets warm hospitality in the heart of Gosford. We've got six hospitality venues — including a modern Australian pub, a rooftop bar and a signature restaurant — plus two levels of conference and event space overlooking Brisbane Waters. Business travellers, holidaymakers and locals all come through our doors, so our kitchen is busy, varied and never boring.

As Chef de Partie, you'll own your section from prep to pass. You'll keep it running smoothly through every service, guide and teach the Commis Chefs working alongside you, and ensure you deliver fresh, quality dishes that tell a story. It's a great step up for a chef ready to lead, with real room to grow.

What you'll actually be doing

- Run your section during service: prep, cook and plate dishes with consistency, colour, texture and flavour front of mind.
- Plan and organise your section's mise en place so it's set up and ready to go before every shift.
- Lead, train and support junior chefs, showing them techniques and holding them to our standards.
- Keep an eye on stock levels for your section, place orders with the Executive Sous Chef, and minimise waste.
- Check deliveries, label and rotate stock to keep everything fresh.
- Follow recipes, portion sizes and plating specs, and spot any quality issues before a dish leaves the pass.
- Chip in with ideas for specials,



menu changes and banqueting and event menus.
- Run HACCP and food safety in your section: temperature logs, cleaning schedules and correct storage.
- Step up and run the kitchen as required.
- Back your fellow chefs during busy services and lend a hand wherever it's needed.
- Help create a fun, respectful and safe kitchen for the whole team.

What you'll bring

- Certificate III or IV in Commercial Cookery (or equivalent trade qualification).
- At least 2 years' experience as a chef in a skilled kitchen, ideally including time as a Demi Chef or Chef de Partie.
- High-volume experience, whether in a hotel, banqueting or busy restaurant.
- Solid knowledge of HACCP and food safety standards; a Food Safety Supervisor certificate is a bonus.
- Confidence leading and teaching junior chefs, with a calm head under pressure.
- A genuine passion for food, hospitality and learning.
- Ability to work varied hours and days, including nights, weekends and public holidays.
