Mick's Meat Barn is a whole carcass butchery specialising in pasture fed beef, direct from the farmer and free range chicken.

We are located at Kawana Waters on the Sunshine Coast and we are open 7 days, so the ability to work at least one weekend day is a must.

Ideally you are enthusiastic and energetic and have a minimum of 3 years (preferably 5 years) experience as a qualified tradesman. Not only will you posses the technical skill to perform your butchery duties but also enjoy food, whether eating it or cooking it and talking to customers about the best ways to prepare and cook it.

- Breaking a carcase into primal cuts using your knife skills as well as being able to operate a bandsaw
