The Venue

Collier Park is currently a bustling public 27 hole golf course, 18 hole mini golf course and driving range with a thriving café and functions outfit to complement. Later this year, we’ll begin construction in a huge $20m transformation, introducing a full restaurant, dedicated 200 pax function centre, entertainment based (and F&B serviced) driving range, padel tennis courts, playground and a new retail base.

With support from our National F&B leaders, you’ll help create the restaurant layout, furniture options, overall F&B offering, create systems of work and assist in the launch of a brand new restaurant and function food offering.
