Job description

Join the Barossa's most iconic wine brands.

Less than an hour from Adelaide, St Hugo and Grant Burge sit among the Barossa Valley's most celebrated wine destinations. Surrounded by sweeping vineyard views and the dramatic Barossa Ranges, this iconic estate brings together world-class wines, exceptional hospitality and unforgettable guest experiences.

And now, St Hugo has been officially Michelin selected in the inaugural Michelin Guide South Australia 2027 , placing our restaurant among the state's top dining venues recognised for exceptional cooking, premium ingredients and consistency.

This global accolade shines an international spotlight on our team and elevates the guest experience you'll help deliver.

Part of Vinarchy, a global wine company crafting celebrated wines across Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Italy, Spain, Chile and the United States, we're passionate about creating moments of connection, discovery and enjoyment through wine.

We're looking for hospitality professionals to join our Front of House team, delivering premium restaurant and cellar door experiences across this truly unique, and now Michelin selected destination.

Why This Role Is Different

If you've been searching for a hospitality role that offers genuine work-life balance, this could be exactly what you're looking for.

Unlike many restaurant positions, you'll enjoy predominantly daytime and lunch service shifts, allowing you to build a successful hospitality career without sacrificing your evenings.

You’ll spend your days welcoming guests, sharing exceptional wines, showcasing local produce and representing two of Australia's most respected wine brands , all while working in one of the most beautiful settings in the country.

And with St Hugo now recognised by the Michelin Guide, you'll be part of a team delivering experiences that meet internationally benchmarked standards of quality.

The Opportunity

This permanent full-time role combines restaurant service and cellar door hospitality, giving you the opportunity to develop your skills across both premium dining and wine experiences.

One day you may be delivering polished food and wine service in our acclaimed, Michelin-Selected restaurant. The next, you'll be hosting wine tastings, sharing the stories behind our vineyards and helping guests discover their new favourite wine.

Most importantly, you'll create memorable experiences that keep guests returning to the Barossa and our brands time and again.

About You

You’ll thrive in this role if you genuinely love creating memorable experiences for others. Your previous hospitality experience in a restaurant, café, cellar door or premium service environment, coupled with your warm, professional and approachable style, will set you up for success.

You’ll also bring:

• A current RSA certificate
• A passion for food, wine and hospitality
• WSET qualifications or wine education (advantageous)
• The ability to remain calm and organised during busy service periods

Why Join Vinarchy?

As part of our team, you'll enjoy more than just a great role.

Employee Benefits

• Permanent full-time employment and career stability
• Predominantly lunch and daytime shifts with occasional events and evenings
• Annual staff wine allowance
• Private health insurance discounts
• Retail and lifestyle discounts
• Wellbeing initiatives and community volunteering opportunities

Join a Team Where Hospitality Is Shared

At Vinarchy, we believe great wine starts conversations, creates connections and brings people together. But it's our people who bring those experiences to life.

If you're looking to take the next step in your hospitality career, while enjoying the lifestyle, prestige and global recognition that comes from working at a Michelin selected Barossa destination ...we'd love to hear from you.
