We're Hiring: Breakfast Chef, CDP & Sous

We're looking for three great chefs to join our team at Edgars, with one position available for each of the following roles:

- Breakfast Chef
- Chef de Partie (CDP)
- Sous Chef

We're after people who take pride in their cooking, work well in a team, and want to be part of a kitchen that's going places.

Who we are

Edgars has been part of Canberra's dining scene since 2001. Twenty-five years, a loyal local following, and a reputation for warm service and genuinely good food. Our venues range from busy pub kitchens to The Inn, our elevated restaurant built around premium produce, wine, and wood-fired cooking. Our kitchens are stable. Most of our team have been with us for years, and our head chefs have worked their way up through the group.

The chance

We have three positions available across our kitchens, offering different opportunities depending on your experience and where you want to take your career. Whether you're a breakfast chef who thrives on busy mornings, a strong chef de partie looking to take the next step, or an experienced sous chef ready to make your mark, we'd love to hear from you.

You'll work with quality produce across our restaurant, pub, and wood-fired kitchens, alongside an experienced and supportive team.



Wood-fire or grill experience is a bonus, but not essential.

Who we're looking for

We're selective, and we'd rather find the right people than rush to fill a position. The chefs who do well here:

- Turn up ready, every time
- Keep their bench clean and their section running smoothly, even when it's busy
- Take pride in every plate leaving the pass
- Leave their ego at the door and back their team
- Want to keep learning, improving, and progressing

What we offer

- Competitive pay based on experience
- Genuine career progression. We promote from within
- A stable, experienced, and supportive kitchen team
- Staff meals and venue discounts
- Free on-site parking
- Opportunities to work with premium produce and develop wood-fired cooking skills

How to apply

Send through your resume and a short cover letter telling us a bit about your experience and what you're looking for next. Please clearly state which position you're applying for (Breakfast Chef, Chef de Partie, or Sous Chef) in your cover letter.
