Commis / Demi Chef — Home by 9pm. Every Night.

Mermaid Waters, QLD 4218 | Casual or Part-Time | $31.30 – $47.00 per hour

Immediate start — interviews happening now

You know the drill in most kitchens: split shifts, midnight finishes, chaotic rosters, and a head chef who communicates in decibels. This isn’t that kitchen. Our client in Mermaid Waters runs a professional, well-structured kitchen where the last plate goes out early, the roster is consistent, and you’re walking to your car by 8:30pm — not scrubbing down at midnight. If you’re a capable chef with solid à la carte experience who wants your evenings (and your sanity) back, keep reading.

Why chefs actually want this role

  • Civilised hours. Start mid-afternoon (2:30pm – 3:30pm), finish 8:00pm – 8:30pm. No split shifts. No 1am clean-downs.
  • Consistency you can plan a life around. Regular afternoon shifts, with only the occasional morning as required.
  • Your choice of arrangement. Casual for the higher hourly rate and flexibility, or part-time for the security of set hours and paid leave — you pick what suits your life.
  • A kitchen with structure. Proper systems, clear standards, and a team that runs calm services — not chaos.
  • Real input. Your ideas for daily specials and menu development are genuinely wanted, not just tolerated.

What your shift looks like

You’ll be preparing and cooking modern Australian cuisine to established quality and presentation standards. Day to day, that means:

  • Running your mise en place in line with service and business needs
  • Cooking and plating to spec during a focused evening service
  • Helping keep stock control tight — managing food costs and minimising waste
  • Pitching in on specials and menu ideas
  • Keeping your section clean and compliant with HACCP and food safety standards

Who we’re looking for

  • An experienced Commis or Demi Chef — previous kitchen experience is essential
  • Confident with food safety, HACCP, and kitchen hygiene standards
  • Good working knowledge of dietary requirements
  • Aged care catering experience is a bonus, but definitely not a dealbreaker
  • Reliable, organised, and easy to work alongside — this team looks after each other

The details

  • Pay: $31.30 – $47.00 per hour, depending on experience and casual vs part-time arrangement (Award rates apply)
  • Location: In-person role, Mermaid Waters QLD 4218

Working rights

Applicants must have the legal right to work in Australia. This position does not offer sponsorship. Applicants on a Working Holiday or Student Visa with a substantial remaining duration may be considered, subject to suitability and relevant experience.
