Chefs — All Levels — Full Time & Part Time — Cabana

Cabana is expanding this year, and it's an exciting time to join the team. We're launching a brand-new Pan Asian food offering, bringing bold flavours, fresh techniques and a whole new energy to our kitchen — and we want passionate chefs at all levels to help bring it to life, on both a full-time and part-time basis.

This is more than just a new menu. It's a chance to be part of building something from the ground up, working alongside a genuinely supportive and experienced team who are excited about where the venue is heading. Whether you're early in your career and looking to learn, or an experienced chef ready to help shape a new offering, there's a place for you here.

About the role

You'll play a key role in bringing our new menu to life, working alongside an experienced kitchen team to deliver high-quality food in a fast-paced venue. Your responsibilities will include:

• Preparing and cooking dishes to a consistently high standard, in line with recipes and presentation guidelines
• Supporting the development and rollout of our new Pan Asian menu
• Maintaining a clean, organised and compliant kitchen in line with food safety standards
• Managing stock, storage and ordering as required for your level
• Working collaboratively with the broader kitchen and floor team, particularly during busy service periods
• Mentoring or supporting more junior team members (for senior applicants)

What we're looking for

• Chefs of all levels welcome — apprentices, commis, chefs de partie, and sous chefs
• Experience with or genuine interest in Pan Asian cuisine highly regarded
• A positive attitude, strong work ethic and pride in your craft
• Ability to stay calm and efficient under pressure
• Good attention to detail, particularly around presentation and food safety
• A team player who's happy to support wherever needed
• Flexibility to work across our trading days, including evenings and weekends
• A current Food Handling certificate (or willingness to obtain one)
• Relevant trade qualifications highly regarded for more senior positions

Please note: this role is only available to applicants with current, unrestricted work rights in Australia (onshore applicants only). Visa sponsorship is not available at the point of hire, however sponsorship may be considered for the right candidate following the successful completion of their probation period.

What's in it for you

• Competitive pay above award rates, reflective of experience
• The chance to be part of an exciting new food offering from the ground up
• A supportive, experienced kitchen team
• All the Tilley & Wills perks — staff meals, drink discounts across our venues, and real opportunities to grow within the group
• Access to our Employee Assistance Program
