The kitchen is yours as a Sous Chef. You'll work closely with the Head Chef to deliver a motivated and safe environment for all our Chefs. You’ll support the Head Chef and General Manager by ensuring the kitchen is in top condition and you'll have the team's back by providing everything they need to make every shift better.

The good stuff.

• Permanent, full-time contract guaranteeing 40 hours per week
• Fortnightly pay for all our teams
• Meals from our employee menu on every shift
• 100% discount off our food at any Côte for you, family, and friends
• Opportunities for internal development and growth with upcoming plans
