We’re on the hunt for a reliable, energetic Kitchen Hand to join our back-of-house team. You’ll be the engine room of the kitchen – keeping things clean, organised, and running smoothly so our chefs can do their thing. No two days are the same, and there’s always something sizzling!

What You’ll Bring

  • A great attitude and strong work ethic
  • Ability to stay cool under pressure in a busy kitchen
  • A team-first mindset and willingness to pitch in wherever needed
  • Previous kitchen experience is a bonus, but not essential – we’ll show you the ropes!

Why Join Us?

  • Work in one of NZ’s most iconic locations
  • Be part of a fun, supportive, and passionate team
  • Gain valuable hospitality experience
  • Enjoy staff perks and a workplace with serious views 🌄
