Demi Chef

Commis Chef - QLD - Sunshine Coast - Full Time

Spirit House restaurant has been winning awards and launching chef careers for over 20 years.

Located in Yandina, just 20 minutes from the beaches and the resort towns of Noosa and Mooloolaba we are offering a lifestyle as well as a unique opportunity to bring your skills and ideas in Asian cuisine to life while supporting the head chef and creating awesome dishes with our dedicated kitchen crew.

The Opportunity:

We are seeking a chef who has a real passion for Asian food & Modern Technique and wants an outlet to express their ideas, step up the career ladder and grow their skills - with the benefit of no split shifts and free onsite parking.

Let's talk hours - frankly, it's up to you. We are open to someone who wants plenty of hours but would also consider two chefs who would like to cut back and create a work/life balance.

Here's what we will do for you:

Good work/life balance - we are busy during the week and weekends so there is flexibility there to create a lifestyle, not just a job.
A dedicated team of professional chefs who work happily together and are willing to learn and bring new ideas to life.
Overseas Trips - join one of our tours to Thailand with the head chef to develop new ideas and learn the secrets behind Thai food
Lifestyle - no split shifts, reasonable hours means you get more time to live your life and take advantage of the coastal life.
Free Onsite Parking.
Great Pay - plus you are treated with respect.
Non-bullying workplace - our head chef is calm, professional and has created a happy workplace where you can look forward to going to work.
About YOU:

You might be thinking, "Woot, this sounds like a great job", and it is - but it's not for everyone - we have a specific type of person in mind. So let's talk about YOU.

You probably have a bookshelf filled with cookbooks and your Instagram is overflowing with food porn images. When you go to a book shop you go to the cookbook section first.

We're talking passion but, most importantly, we want people who can back that passion up with proven skills and new ideas for Asian food.

A little bit more about you:

Maybe you're smashing out huge hours in the latest, hottest place in town but you're not getting paid properly or the respect you deserve.

Or . . . you're in a position right now where you have ideas and passion that is simply being ignored or it's just not the sort of place where you can unleash your potential.

You've got:

Great knife skills
the ability to play well with others
experience working in busy kitchens
proven passion for your craft
the desire to share your knowledge and teach others
to be willing to learn and grow
ideas to take food to new levels
believes there's more to Asian food than putting kewpie mayo on everything
Here's The Deal:

Spirit House is a consistently busy, hatted restaurant and a major food destination with a huge reputation in the business.

Our team of great chefs has published cookbooks, won hats, led food tours overseas and has kept the Spirit House a major Australian food destination on the Sunshine Coast.

Chefs from Spirit House have earned a serious reputation and have gone on to senior positions in some of the most exciting restaurants in the country - and overseas.

If you're wanting to get funky with Asian food and are ready to step up the ladder in your career . . . AND . . . can treat others with respect then we would like to hear from you.

We are looking for a commis chef and can offer a fulltime position.

There you have it.
