JOB DESCRIPTION

The engine room of a Goode time.

Dr Goodes is a neighbourhood venue that shifts with the night — a relaxed, design-led pizza and cocktail bar that gradually builds into a culturally charged social space. Groove-led foundations rolling into disco and house, drawing in locals and the creative vanguard. Behind every clean plate and smooth service is a kitchen that runs tight. We're looking for a Kitchen Hand who takes pride in a spotless, well-organised section and wants to be part of the team that keeps the night moving.

This role is primarily for KPs, but suitable candidates may be considered for a Commis or Chef de Partie (CDP) position.

What you'll be doing

• Washing, cleaning and maintaining all crockery, glassware, cutlery, pots, pans and kitchen equipment to a consistently high standard
• Keeping the kitchen, prep areas and scullery clean, tidy and free of hazards throughout service
• Assisting chefs with basic prep and assembly of ingredients as needed
• General pantry duties, stock rotation and putting away deliveries
• Daily checks on equipment, storage and cleaning-chemical levels, following food safety and HSE procedures
• Emptying bins and recyclables and dealing with spills immediately to keep the floor safe

What you'll bring

• A strong work ethic, a sense of urgency and pride in a clean, organised kitchen
• Reliability and punctuality — ready to start on time, every shift
• The ability to keep your cool and keep up when the kitchen gets busy
• A team-first attitude and willingness to pitch in wherever needed
• Availability across evenings, late nights and weekends (we're open Tue–Sun, with shifts running late Fri–Sat)
• NSW Food Safety / Food Handler Basics Certificate, or willingness to obtain
• For Commis/CDP consideration: a minimum 6 months' demonstrated experience in a similar kitchen role and confidence operating commercial kitchen equipment
