Our mobile Spanish catering company is now looking for an energetic chef/cook/driver to help us operate our food truck/mobile catering business & events.

What we are looking for:

Great communication & customer service skills

Someone who is 100% reliable & trustworthy

Able to be flexible with hours – will involve working most weekends.

Willing to be an all-rounder.

Able to work autonomously.

Reasonable amount of basic fitness is required

The job is based in Rowville, Victoria at our factory/kitchen, however this position will take you to some amazing music festivals, food and wine festivals, sporting events, corporate events, and many other functions.

If you’re looking for something different and enjoy working in a variety of locations, this job is for you!

This job offers a competitive salary to the right person. Due to the seasonal nature of the business, extended holidays may be taken during the winter as accrued time in lieu.
