Sydney, New South Wales, Australia FEEDWELL Full time $60,000 - $80,000 per year

Sydney CBD | Full-Time, Permanent | Fixed Shifts That Support Work-Life Balance

We're Feedwell, one of Sydney's fastest-growing fresh food catering businesses. We deliver thousands of meals daily to workplaces like Google, Amazon, Canva, and Louis Vuitton – but it's our production crew that makes it happen.

We're hiring full-time Production Crew (Catering Assistants) to prepare, assemble, and pack fresh food in our central kitchen. You'll be working at your own bench, following the step-by-step procedures we train you on, and working to the system so everything is consistent. This is hands-on, practical work – making sure every salad, wrap, sandwich, and grazing board looks great, tastes fresh, and goes out on time.

This is a full-time, permanent job with fixed days and hours. It's not casual work. You'll know exactly when you're working, what your role is, and what's expected. No last-minute roster changes.

What You'll Do
  • Prep work such as chopping, portioning, and batching produce and proteins to recipe specs, plus cooking and roasting vegetables.
  • Prepare & assemble salads, wraps, sandwiches, grazing/fruit platters and bakery items to our recipes and standards – we'll show you exactly how
  • Follow our step-by-step procedures and stick with them once trained
  • Work at your station with pace and consistency to hit production times
  • Keep your bench clean, organised, and food-safe
  • Rotate across stations (prep & assembly) once trained, so you can build more skills
  • Be respectful, reliable, and a positive part of your team
Who Thrives Here
  • People who like routine, pace, and clear standards
  • Those who take pride in making food to recipe that looks great every time
  • Reliable, punctual team players who want stability (with the choice to grow further if they want)
  • People happy to learn our way of working, build on that knowledge, and keep improving over time
What You'll Get

We know how important great crew are. When we find them, we look after them.

  • Full-time, permanent job with fixed days and hours

  • Shifts that support work-life balance:

  • Early Morning: Mon-Fri, 2:00 a.m. - 10:00 a.m.

  • Well paid, with real perks:

  • A meal on every shift

  • Your birthday off – paid
  • Feedwell Grocery Box every fortnight to take home
  • A calm, respectful kitchen – no yelling, no egos
  • Professional systems: clear step-by-step processes, sign-offs, and weekly feedback so you know exactly what "good" looks like
  • Growth (if you want it) through our Feedwell Academy → from Crew to Senior Crew (badge, pay rise, premium shifts). If you're happy mastering one station and staying steady, that's just as valued.
  • Salary: Competitive and aligned with experience.
Hear from some of our Team Leaders

"I started at Feedwell just making sandwiches. I wasn't looking for more at the time, just a stable job I could do well. They noticed, supported me, and helped me grow when I was ready. Now I'm in a more senior role, but it all started on the floor learning the basics properly." — Oktaviana, now Packing Supervisor

"When I joined, I was just looking for something steady after hospitality. Over time they gave me chances to learn new stations and trusted me to do more. I've grown a lot here, but what stood out from day one was that it's calm and organised, not chaotic like other kitchens I'd worked in." — Anne, now Operations Manager (Anne started in a crew role in 2017)

How to Apply

Once you apply, we'll send you a short online questionnaire by email and text. It only takes a few minutes — but it's essential to be considered.

We reply to every applicant, usually within 48 hours (sometimes longer if there are a lot of applications).
