About The Company

Nestled in the lush, rolling hills of the Sunshine Coast Hinterland, our client’s café bistro is more than just a place to eat — it's a haven for food lovers, a local gem undergoing an exciting transformation. By day, they serve up artisanal espresso and vibrant brunches; by night, they become a candlelit bistro showcasing curated wines, bespoke cocktails, and innovative dishes crafted with love.

This is not just a job — it’s your stage for creative expression, where each dish tells a story and every service is a performance. As the business expands to include a new dinner service, this is your chance to help shape its culinary direction from the ground up.

About The Opportunity

As Sous Chef, you’ll play a hands-on role from crafting menus with the Head Chef to managing inventory and kitchen operations. Your creativity and leadership will help shape a refreshed bistro experience.

You’ll take the lead on:

• Menu development using fresh, local produce
• Inventory control and supplier coordination
• Daily prep and smooth dinner service
• Maintaining kitchen standards and mentoring junior staff

This is your chance to be part of something new, exciting, and creatively rewarding — all in a beautiful hinterland setting.

You will also bring:
