Sir Paz Estate is a boutique, family owned winery and woodfire restaurant in Wandin East, in the most picturesque part of the Yarra Valley. We serve seasonal food driven by quality produce and cooked over fire, matched to our estate grown wines, in a warm and unpretentious setting.

Spring and summer are our busiest months, and we’re looking for an experienced casual chef to join our close knit kitchen team across Saturday and Sunday lunch services, with opportunities for additional Thursday and Friday shifts, weddings, corporate events and special functions throughout the season.
