Fremantle, Western Australia Lion Full time $90,000 - $120,000 per year

We're opening the doors to a brand-new, two-level venue on Fremantle's iconic Fishing Boat Harbour, and we're looking for a visionary Executive Chef to lead the culinary direction across two distinct kitchens:

  • Cherub Hall – the heartbeat of our brand, serving bold, beer-friendly fare that celebrates local produce and community spirit.
  • The Loft by Little Creatures & Co – a refined, Asian-inspired experience built around a wood-fired grill, where fire meets finesse.

This is a rare opportunity to shape two unique culinary identities in a venue designed to be a landmark destination for locals and visitors alike.

About the Venue:

Part of a $10 million transformation celebrating Little Creatures' 25th anniversary, the new Fremantle site at 42 Mews Road offers panoramic waterfront views, immersive dining experiences, and a vibrant atmosphere that blends Fremantle's coastal and industrial heritage.

Your Role:

As Executive Chef, you'll lead and mentor two kitchen teams, drive innovation and consistency, and collaborate with venue leadership to deliver unforgettable dining experiences across both levels.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Develop and oversee menus for Cherub Hall and The Loft, ensuring each reflects its unique concept and audience
  • Lead, inspire, and manage two high-performing kitchen teams
  • Maintain exceptional food quality, presentation, and consistency across both venues
  • Manage kitchen operations, budgets, and supplier relationships
  • Champion food safety, hygiene, and compliance standards
  • Collaborate with front-of-house and operations teams to ensure seamless service

What You Bring:

  • Proven experience as an Executive Chef or Senior Head Chef in multi-outlet or concept-driven venues
  • Strong leadership and team development skills
  • Deep understanding of modern Australian and Asian cuisine, with a flair for wood-fired cooking
  • Passion for local ingredients, sustainability, and innovation
  • Excellent organisational and communication skills

Why Join Us?

  • Be part of an iconic brand with a bold new vision
  • Creative freedom to shape two distinct culinary experiences
  • Annual "Cheers to You" bonus — because our creatures deserve a little extra love
  • Monthly Beer Bucks — your golden ticket to frothy rewards
  • Competitive salary, benefits, and career development opportunities
  • A dynamic, supportive team culture in a newly built, high-profile venu
