The posting

Lead from the front. Build a great team. Make your mark.

Runaway Bay Tavern is looking for an experienced, hands-on Head Chef to lead our kitchen team at our newly renovated venue on the Gold Coast.

This is a great opportunity for a strong leader who enjoys a busy pub environment, takes pride in their food and knows how to balance great service with strong kitchen performance.

About the role

You’ll take ownership of day-to-day kitchen operations, leading by example and responding quickly to customer demand and weekly trading needs. You’ll need to be commercially minded, organised and ready to get hands-on when things get busy.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Leading, training and developing the kitchen team
  • Being hands-on during service and setting the standard for the team
  • Managing labour costs and rostering
  • Responding quickly to customer demand and weekly trading needs
  • Managing food costs, ordering, stock control and wastage
  • Maintaining food quality, presentation and consistency
  • Ensuring food safety, hygiene and kitchen standards are maintained
  • Creating a positive team culture built on accountability, teamwork and a can-do attitude

What we’re looking for

  • 4+ years’ experience as a Head Chef in a busy kitchen
  • Strong leadership skills and a hands-on approach
  • Experience managing labour and food costs
  • A can-do attitude and the ability to think on your feet
  • Someone reliable who leads by example and brings out the best in their team

Why join us?

  • Competitive salary + annual bonus of up to $20K paid quarterly
  • A newly renovated kitchen and venue
  • A great kitchen team with training and support provided
  • Staff discounts across 240+ Australian Venue Co. venues
  • Career development opportunities across the group

If you’re a hands-on leader who knows how to run a busy kitchen and drive results, we’d love to hear from you!

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
