Job description

A busy pub kitchen in Shepparton needs experienced Chefs who can hold their own through a hectic summer. The employer is hiring on a casual basis for the season and wants cooks who stay calm under pressure and pull together with the rest of the brigade.

The menu centres on hearty pub favourites and fresh dishes made in-house, served in the bistro and at functions and events. Consistency matters as much as speed here.

The employer has signalled two possible next steps. A strong performer may be offered a permanent full-time position, and sponsorship may be considered after 6 months of employment, subject to eligibility, performance, business requirements and approval.
