About us
Cartel Taqueria is modern Mexican, built around a taco you won't find anywhere else. We already trade in Queanbeyan & Belconnen, & our third venue opens on Wason Street, Ulladulla, on Thursday 29 October.
Our kitchen is led by Head Chef Rupert & Sous Chef Kane, & we're after two cooks to complete the opening team.

How the week works:
We trade Thursday to Sunday, lunch from 12 & dinner from 5, with Wednesday as a prep day. Once we're settled, chefs work four days & get three off. Through the opening period you'll also be in on Wednesdays while the team finds its feet. From Boxing Day to the end of January we're open seven days with extra staff on, so you need to be around over Christmas & January.
What we're looking for:
- Experience cooking in a busy kitchen
- Quick on your feet & calm when it's flat out
- Keen to learn a new style of cooking & happy to cook to a spec
- Available Thursday to Sunday, including nights, weekends & public holidays
