Hours: 20–25 hours per week (with flexibility & room to grow)

Type: Part-time

About Us

The Little Ship Club (LSC) is a much-loved community hub and hospitality venue set right on the waterfront of North Stradbroke Island. Established in the 1950s, our Club is an iconic spot for locals, boaties, day-trippers, and families. With unbeatable views, live music, and hearty meals, we pride ourselves on being the island's go-to destination for good food, cold drinks, and friendly faces.

About the Role

We're on the lookout for an experienced Cook / Chef to join our kitchen crew. This is a hands-on role with plenty of variety — from preparing raw ingredients ready for service, to cooking crowd-favourite bistro classics, seafood dishes, and weekly specials.

You'll work alongside our Head Chef and hospitality team to:

Prepare raw ingredients ready for service (vegetables, meats, sauces, seafood prep)

Cook and plate quality meals to a consistent standard

Help manage kitchen operations during service

Maintain a clean, safe, and organised kitchen

Assist with stock management and prep

Collaborate on new specials and menu ideas

Contribute to a positive, respectful team environment

About You

We're looking for someone reliable, confident in the kitchen, and able to keep cool under pressure. You don't need fine-dining experience — but you do need a passion for good food and teamwork.

You'll bring:

Previous experience in a commercial kitchen (pub/bistro style ideal)

Confidence in preparing raw ingredients and running service smoothly

Food safety and hygiene knowledge

A flexible, team-focused attitude

A reliable, positive work ethic

Ability to handle busy services with care and efficiency

Bonus if you're familiar with island or regional hospitality work

Why Join Little Ship Club?

A location like no other – stunning waterfront setting

Supportive, fun team culture – we work hard and laugh harder

Steady, rewarding role – help us feed our locals and visitors with pride

Boat travel covered – return ferry tickets provided from the mainland

Live locally or commute – staff from both Straddie and Brisbane welcome

Flexible hours – 20–25 per week to start, with potential to grow

Sunsets included – and you won't find better ones anywhere

Ready to Come Aboard?

Be part of a crew that's passionate about good food, great service, and the best island lifestyle.
