We’re Hiring: Canteen Manager (Permanent Part-Time)

Location: Burraneer Bay Public School, NSW

Hours: Up to 35 hours/week, term-time only (4 or 5 days, negotiable) including annual, sick leave etc as per the Award.

Award: Fast Food Industry Award 2020, Level 3 (2 or more reports)

Start date: Early Term 3, 2025

Burraneer Bay Public School P&C Association is seeking a dynamic, organised and community-minded Canteen Manager to lead the day-to-day operations of our school canteen and provide critical support during peak periods to our uniform shop. This role covers the hours Monday to Friday 8am - 2.30pm (term time only), with some earlier starts on key event or high-volume days.

This role offers an exciting opportunity to shape and grow a much-loved school service. We are looking for someone who cares about being part of a caring school community, and who can balance business objectives with pastoral care objectives.

Working closely with the P&C Executive and supported by assistants and volunteers, the Canteen Manager will play a vital role in delivering a high-quality, affordable, and efficient food service for our students, while also supporting the school uniform shop during key periods.

Key responsibilities include:

Overseeing daily canteen operations (stock management, food preparation, customer service, lunch orders, hygiene and safety)

Coordinating and supporting volunteers and casual staff

Managing stock levels, ordering, and minimising waste

Overseeing daily takings, invoicing, and working with the Treasurer on key financial tasks

Providing support to the uniform shop team on similar tasks (e.g. during leave periods)

About You

We’re looking for someone who is:

Friendly, reliable, and able to work independently

Experienced in food handling and safe kitchen practices

Hold (or be willing to obtain) a current NSW Food Safety Supervisor Certificate (we will support you to complete this if needed)

Organised and confident with basic stock and financial systems

Experienced with computerised and online ordering systems

Willingness to be flexible and work across both canteen and uniform shop services during leave periods.

Great with people - especially volunteers, families, and children - and comfortable managing a group of volunteers and dealing with customer service enquiries.

Passionate about contributing to a vibrant school community

A valid Working With Children Check (or willingness to obtain) is essential. Familiarity with school environments, community groups, or canteen work is an advantage — but we’re open to anyone with the right attitude and experience.

What We Offer

Family-friendly hours (no school holidays or evenings)

Supportive school and P&C community

The opportunity to lead and grow a service that matters to hundreds of children and families each week

Pay and entitlements in line with the Fast Food Industry Award 2020, Level 3 (2 or more staff)

Training and certification support provided

To apply for this role please forward your resume along with a cover letter addressing the listed criteria above and email to [email protected] by 5pm, Sunday 20th July.

Applications will be shortlisted, and suitable applicants will be contacted and invited to interview in the week following.
