Your Opportunity

We are seeking a Casual Kitchen Hand to join our team at Logan House.

This is more than a traditional kitchen role. You'll play an important part in supporting the day-to-day operation of our residential service by helping provide nutritious meals in a safe, welcoming and well-organised environment.

Working closely with the Food Services Coordinator and broader service team, you'll assist with food preparation, kitchen cleaning, stock management, meal service and food safety requirements. You'll also support residents who are involved in kitchen duties as part of developing everyday living skills and building independence.

As a casual team member, you'll help provide coverage across the service as required, making flexibility, reliability and a willingness to work collaboratively important to success in the role.

No two days are exactly the same. One moment you may be assisting with meal preparation or receiving deliveries, and the next you may be completing stock checks, maintaining food safety standards or supporting a positive dining experience for residents.

What Success Looks Like

• Maintaining a clean, safe and organised kitchen environment.
• Supporting the preparation and service of nutritious meals.
• Ensuring food storage, stock rotation and food safety requirements are consistently maintained.
• Building positive and respectful relationships with residents and colleagues.
• Contributing to a welcoming environment that supports wellbeing and recovery.
• Working collaboratively with the wider Logan House team.

What We're Looking For

We're looking for someone who enjoys working in a busy kitchen environment, takes pride in maintaining high standards, and understands the positive role food can play in health, wellbeing and recovery.

You'll also bring:

• Experience working in hospitality, catering, commercial kitchens or a similar environment.
• Knowledge of food safety, safe food handling and kitchen hygiene practices.
• Strong organisational skills and attention to detail.
• Ability to prioritise tasks and manage competing demands.
• Confidence working independently while also contributing as part of a team.
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
• A positive, reliable and proactive approach to work.
• Flexibility to work a range of shifts as required.
• A respectful and inclusive approach when working with people from diverse backgrounds.

Experience working within community services, healthcare, aged care, disability, mental health or residential environments will be highly regarded.

You will also hold:

• A current Australian Driver Licence.
• Ability to complete a National Criminal History Check.
• Food Safety qualifications or certifications will be highly regarded.
