Job Description

Head Chef | Blue Mountain Hotel

Base Salary From $90,000 + Super + Bonus + Group Wide Discounts

We’re searching for a Head Chef to lead the kitchen at the Blue Mountain Hotel - the beating heart of our local community and the place where pub classics meet plates locals can’t get enough of.

Located north of Toowoomba in the town of Harlaxton lies the Blue Mountain Hotel, a favourite local pub that offers delicious food, refreshing drinks and a great setting for special occasions. First built in 1888, the building is heritage listed and has undergone a recent renovation to keep it fresh and modern. Our Bistro has a spacious dining area and a menu offering fresh salads, hearty burgers and all the classic pub meals you know and love to serve to our guests.

A day in the life of a Head Chef:

• Command the kitchen like it’s your own, keeping it running smooth, safe, and profitable
• Be a key part of the leadership crew, working closely with the Publican and FOH team
• Share your passion, skills, and creativity to grow a high-performing kitchen team
• Keep the connection between the kitchen and front of house flowing with good vibes and great food every shift

Inherent requirements:

• This is a hands-on role that involves manual handling and lifting as part of regular duties (e.g. moving stock, kegs, and deliveries). Applicants must have the ability to perform physical tasks safely and efficiently.

About you:

• You’ve got the experience, confidence, and pride to own the kitchen and make it shine
• You’ve got trade cooking qualifications and food safety certifications sorted
• You live and breathe the Head Chef life - creating food people talk about and coming in each day ready to lead

If you’re ready to put your stamp on a kitchen locals love, let’s talk.
