Be part of sharing special places and shaping lasting memories with Australia’s leading experiential tourism business.
About Us
Captain Cook Cruises Sydney is part of Journey Beyond, Australia’s leading experiential tourism group.
For over 50 years, our teams have been creating memorable experiences on Sydney Harbour. Across Captain Cook Cruises, The Jackson and Starship Sydney, we bring together great food, genuine hospitality and one of the most iconic backdrops in the world.
From sightseeing cruises and relaxed dining to premium experiences and special events, no two days on the Harbour are quite the same. Behind every experience is a passionate team working together to make it memorable for our guests.
For our kitchen team, that means excellent food, busy services and the opportunity to build your skills in a workplace that’s anything but ordinary.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Casual Cook to join our kitchen team across Captain Cook Cruises, The Jackson and Starship Sydney. Working alongside our Chefs and wider galley team, you’ll help prepare and deliver quality food across our cruises, dining experiences and functions.
You’ll:
- Prepare and cook menu items to our standards
- Support the kitchen team during busy services and functions
- Assist with food preparation, stock rotation and kitchen organisation
- Maintain high standards of food safety, hygiene and cleanliness

And it’s certainly not your typical kitchen. You’ll be cooking on Sydney Harbour, building your experience in a fast-paced environment with one of the best backdrops in the city.
