· Discover why this place stays with people, long after they’ve gone home.

Few chefs get the opportunity to shape the food story of an entire destination.

This is one of those opportunities.

Some kitchens are built around recipes.

Others are built around people.

We're building ours around both.

We're creating one of Tasmania's most exciting hospitality destinations on the spectacular East Coast, just south of Four Mile Creek.

A coastal vineyard.

A brewery and distillery producing beer and spirits with a story to tell.

A restaurant celebrating the very best of Tasmania.

A busy wedding and events venue.

Cabin and holiday park accommodation bringing visitors from all over Australia.

A place where locals, travellers, surfers, campers and food lovers all come together.

We're looking for a Head Chef who sees more than a kitchen.

We're looking for someone who wants to build a legacy.

This isn't just about running a Kitchen.

Of course you'll help design menus….

Lead service.

Manage food costs.

Build systems.

Develop suppliers.

Maintain standards.

Every Head Chef does those things.

What makes this role different is the opportunity to shape the food identity of an entire destination and become part of the team whose purpose is to create an icon.

You'll have the freedom to celebrate and create with access to:

East Coast seafood.

Premium Tasmanian beef and lamb.

Seasonal vegetables from local growers.

Produce that deserves to be the hero.

Working alongside our leadership team, you'll help create an experience that people remember not simply because the food was delicious...

But because it couldn't have come from anywhere else.

We don't want guests leaving saying,

"That was a great meal."

We want them saying,

"That tasted like Tasmania."

Great food starts long before we turn on the stove.

We believe great cooking starts before a chef picks up a knife.

It begins before sunrise.

With fishermen heading out onto the East Coast.





With farmers raising exceptional livestock.

With growers harvesting vegetables packed with flavour.

With brewers, distillers and winemakers refining their craft right here on the property.

By the time an ingredient reaches your kitchen, countless passionate people have already played their part.

Our job is simply to do justice to everything they've already done.

That's a responsibility we take seriously.

Every great kitchen starts with great people.

Around here we talk a lot about People & Passion.

Not because it sounds good.

Because we believe it.

The greatest kitchens aren't remembered because of fancy equipment.

They're remembered because of the people who worked in them.

The culture.

The laughter.

The standards.

The friendships.

The mentoring.

That's the kitchen we want to build.

As Head Chef you'll be the one to drive this every single day.

You'll lead from the front.

You'll teach.

You'll coach.

You'll encourage.

You'll challenge people to become better than they thought they could be.

Not because you have to.

Because you genuinely enjoy watching people grow.

We want apprentices who become chefs.

Chefs who become leaders.

Young cooks who leave your kitchen more skilled, more confident and more passionate than the day they arrived.

That's the leadership we’re looking for.

That's the legacy we want to leave.

If your greatest achievement as Head Chef is the people you've developed...

We'll consider that a success.

This could be your kitchen.

A kitchen where incredible produce arrives every morning.

Where suppliers know your name.

Where menus change with the seasons.

Where weddings are opportunities to create lifelong memories.

Where restaurant guests return because they trust your food.

Where your crew are proud to wear the apron.

Where service is skilled.

The standards are high.

The egos are low.

And everyone rows in the same direction.

That's the culture we're building.

About You.





You're an experienced Head Chef or an exceptional Sous Chef ready for the next step.

You understand food costs, labour, ordering and kitchen systems.

But you're just as passionate about people as you are about food.

You're calm under pressure.

Organised.

Professional.

Curious.

You enjoy mentoring young chefs.

You love discovering local producers.

You believe consistency is the greatest compliment a kitchen can receive.

Most importantly...

You're humble enough to keep learning.

Because the best chefs never stop.

What's in it for you?

· Salary $100,000–$110,000.

· Accommodation assistance available.

· The opportunity to shape the food identity of one of Tasmania's most exciting new hospitality destinations.

· Creative freedom to celebrate exceptional Tasmanian produce.

Spend your days off surfing.

Fishing.

Exploring beaches.

Visiting local producers.

Sharing a bottle of local pinot with friends.

Or simply enjoying the lifestyle that brings visitors here from all over the world.

We'd love to hear your story.

If you've read this far, you're probably not looking for just another Head Chef role.

You're looking for a kitchen that means something.

A place where local produce matters.

Where mentoring matters.

Where culture matters.

Where people matter.

Tell us about your journey.

Tell us about the producers who have inspired you.

Tell us about the young chef you're most proud of helping.

Tell us what hospitality means to you.

We're looking for more than a Head Chef.

We're looking for a leader.

A mentor.

A teacher.

Someone who understands that remarkable hospitality begins with remarkable people.

We're looking for our next member of the Future Crew.

If that sounds like you...

We'd love to meet you.

WORK WHERE OTHER PEOPLE DREAM OF SPENDING THEIR HOLIDAYS.

WORK AT A PLACE THAT LIVES IN MOST PEOPLE’S DREAMS AND CHERISHED MEMORIES!

Lead with humility.

Cook with purpose.

Build something that lasts.
