Head Chef
2 weeks ago
This isn't a chef job where you hide in an office. You'll be elbow-deep in the action, creating exceptional food, inspiring your team, and delivering unforgettable experiences at Australia's largest regional arts centre.
Why Join Us?
Australia's largest regional arts centre: Be part of Australia's largest regional arts centre, delivering exceptional food experiences within a major Victorian public cultural institution.
Leadership opportunity: Lead and mentor a skilled, passionate kitchen team.
Staff Benefits: Enjoy staff initiatives like complimentary tickets for live music, comedy, opera, theatre, musical theatre and more as well as discount on food and beverages at Tutti and Geelong Arts Centre bars and cafe.
Positive Culture: Join a growing hospitality team that values creativity, inclusiveness and pride in delivering high-quality, memorable experiences.
Lifestyle: Be part of a dynamic coastal city where thriving arts, great food, stunning beaches and big city energy combine to offer an enviable, relaxed lifestyle. Relocation support available.
The Role
As Head Chef, you'll own the kitchen. You're responsible for food that wows, standards that soar, and a team that thrives.
Your kitchen feeds the entire arts centre experience: the bustling café, buzzing bars, elegant functions, and whatever creative food activations we dream up next.
You'll craft menus that are innovative, high-quality, and competitively priced, because great food shouldn't compromise on flavour, presentation or value.
You're not just feeding people, you are part of creating memories in one of Australia's most dynamic cultural spaces. Your kitchen supports art, music, performance, and community. Every plate matters. Every service tells a story.
