Want to earn up to $55K a year? This could be the move for you. Shawty’s Cafe in Twizel - the heart of the Mackenzie, is looking to employ a sous chef on the cutting edge of their career. Immediate start available.

- Opportunity to advance your career

- Work with people who are passionate about food in a supportive environment

Shawtys Cafe is synonymous in the Mackenzie for offering fantastic food; the best coffee and craft beers and fine wines to boot.

In 2013 we recruited Head Chef Brad Alty, on the back of winning the ‘People’s Choice Award’ in the Monteith’s Wild Food challenge, and in 2014 we want to support him to win it! 2013 Also saw Shawty’s win the ‘Travellers Choice Award’.

The role offers the opportunity for diversification of skills, and being open from 8am-11pm offers flexibility of shifts too. With low staff turn over you also get to be part of the core team. The summer months are our crazy time with up to 100 covers plus catering for rowing etc, in winter we hold our own but you get a chance to live a more balanced life!

Sadly we are losing our most loyal and long standing chef and we need to replace her.  What we need is someone with the following skills:

- Experience in all areas of food preparation, handling, service, stock control and costing

- The need for excellence and a good temperament must be in your nature

- Be a good team player and looking to commit long term to the Shawty’s team.

We DON’T want just anyone, we want the RIGHT person - if you think that is you then we will:

- Pay you - $18-22 per hour dependant on experience.

- Support you in your own development!

- Welcome you as part of the team, hook you up with some accommodation if you require it and see to it that you love living in the Mackenzie Country as much as we do.

Applications close on the 31st of March with successful applicants being invited to complete a practical interview. The position is available for an immediate start. Earlier appointment may be made prior to closing date if the right application is received.
