Above-award wages | Stable roster | Professional kitchen

Stamford Park Homestead is expanding its kitchen brigade and is now hiring experienced Chefs and a dedicated Pizza Maker to join a high-performance kitchen in one of Melbourne's busiest hospitality venues.

We run a serious kitchen — clean systems, strong leadership, and high standards. This is not a training venue. It is a professional brigade built for consistency and volume.

• Can maintain quality during high-volume service
• Take ownership of their section

Candidates must have a minimum of 2+ years pizza making experience.

You will be responsible for:

• Dough production and fermentation
