Head Chef – Indian QSR Cafe Setup & Staff Training
KBAY pty ltd
Posted 5 days ago
We’re looking for a hands-on, reliable, and motivated individual to take charge of kitchen operations at a new fast-paced food outlet serving modern Indian comfort food in a quick-service format.
This is not just a cooking role — we’re building something from the ground up, and we want someone who’s excited to be part of the journey. You’ll be working alongside the founder during setup and then take over daily kitchen responsibilities fully.
Key Responsibilities:
Oversee daily kitchen operations, including prep, service, and cleanup
Maintain high standards of food quality, consistency, and hygiene
Prepare batch recipes (rice bowls, fillings, chai, snacks) according to standard procedures
Help refine and scale recipes during setup and testing
Ensure efficient storage, rotation, and inventory of ingredients
Assist in training casual kitchen staff and guiding part-timers
Maintain kitchen cleanliness and food safety compliance at all times
Coordinate with suppliers, manage deliveries, and flag low stock
Provide input on workflow, layout, and kitchen improvements
What We’re Looking For:
Previous experience in a café, QSR, or Indian kitchen (preferred but not essential)
Reliable, punctual, and clean in both work and presentation
Can follow systems, maintain prep schedules, and handle basic ordering
Willingness to take ownership — not just clock in and clock out
Calm under pressure with good communication skills
Bonus: experience with chai, Indian fillings, or rice bowls
What We Offer:
Full-time role with potential to grow into a kitchen manager or co-lead
Stable hours, supportive environment, and respect for work-life balance
Role in shaping a growing brand — your input will matter
Competitive pay based on experience, plus opportunity to grow with the business
