We're looking for a practical, easy-going Station Cook to help keep our harvest crew well-fed throughout the season. This isn't fine dining and you don't need to be a qualified chef. If you can cook a good breakfast, prepare a hearty dinner and enjoy looking after people, you'll fit right in.

Based at Lake Cowal NSW, you'll be part of a hardworking team where good food, good humour and a positive attitude are valued. Think simple breakfast, fresh lunch options and simple, home-style dinners after a big day in the paddock.

About You

• Enjoy cooking and feeding people
• No formal qualifications required
• Able to prepare simple, home-style meals
• Reliable, organised and self-motivated
• Comfortable living and working in a rural setting
• Current driver's licence and own transport essential
• Previous cooking, hospitality or station experience is welcomed but not essential

What's on Offer

• Single accommodation provided
• Supportive and welcoming team environment
• Unique opportunity to experience harvest on a large mixed farming operation
• Plenty of fresh air, wide-open spaces and no peak-hour traffic
