A little bit about us: Located on fifty acres of absolute beachfront, Elements of Byron is an award-winning resort known for its laid‑back luxury and exceptional guest experiences. Our resort features beautifully designed one and two-bedroom villas, diverse dining options, and world‑class facilities that embody the best of Byron Bay. We take pride in offering barefoot luxury, ensuring unforgettable moments for both guests and staff in our stunning coastal paradise.

We have an exciting opportunity for a talented and experienced Chef de Partie to join the culinary team at our stunning resort, working across a variety of vibrant and dynamic dining outlets.

This is a full‑time position, offering 38 hours per week, with rosters provided two weeks in advance to help you plan and maintain a healthy work‑life balance.

Your primary base will be our signature restaurant, Azure Bar and Grill, renowned for its refined atmosphere and seasonal menu inspired by locally sourced ingredients. You may also have the chance to broaden your experience by working in our SummerSalt food truck, located at our adults‑only pool bar offering a Mediterranean‑style snack menu, or at Breeze Café, where our newly designed menu delivers a fresh and casual poolside dining experience.

Our resort is proud to deliver an award‑winning culinary experience across multiple venues, with a strong emphasis on fresh, local produce and exceptional service. This role is ideal for a chef who thrives in a fast‑paced, diverse environment and is looking to be part of a creative, supportive team.
