Job Description

For our residents, exceptional food is frequently the highlight of their day, as we truly believe it is one of life's greatest pleasures. Rather than someone who simply follows a recipe, we are seeking a Chef who also has a strong understanding of the IDDSI standard. Stepping into this role, you will lead our kitchen, dedicated to ensuring our residents enjoy delicious, nutritious, and high-quality meals within a warm, community-centered environment.

What You’ll Be Doing

  • Inclusive Culinary Services: Preparing standard menus alongside specialized texture-modified diets and dietary requirements with dignity, precision, and care.
  • Quality Assurance: Ensuring every dish meets rigorous standards for taste, nutritional value, temperature, and visual presentation before service.
  • Safety & Compliance: Upholding strict kitchen hygiene, sanitation, and food safety documentation standards.
  • Team Collaboration: Partnering with a dedicated kitchen team to maintain a supportive, organized, and effective working environment.

Desired Skills and Experience

Who You Are

  • Trade Qualified Professional: Possess a Certificate III in Commercial Cookery (or equivalent standard qualification).
  • Culinary Experience: Proven experience in high-volume, fast-paced kitchen environments. Experience in aged care, healthcare, hospitality, or corporate catering is highly regarded.
  • Resident-Focused Care: A genuine commitment to resident satisfaction, displaying empathy, patience, and flexibility in catering to individual dietary preferences and needs.
  • Autonomous & Dependable Leader: Demonstrated capability to manage weekend kitchen operations independently, maintaining high standards of food quality and service consistency.

What we offer:

  • Competitive wage with salary sacrifice options available
  • A suite of discounts across major companies
  • Support around further training, licensing and accreditations
  • Structured leadership development program

Who we are:

Cater Care is a leading, 100% Australian owned contract catering service provider, operating across multiple sectors (Aged care, Education, Retirement, Retail and Remote services).

Through our values of Care, Pride and Community, we pride ourselves on diversity, work/life balance, providing excellent career opportunities to our employees. We encourage First Nations people to consider a career with us.

Please Note:

As a result of revised standards around health & well-being in the aged care industry, all applicants must have a current year flu vaccination and undertake a National Criminal History Check and NDIS Worker Screening Check.
