Chef de Partie - The Basin Dining Room
Mona Vale, Sydney NSW
Full-time | Competitive salary + tips
The Basin Dining Room in Mona Vale is looking for a talented Chef de Partie to join our kitchen team. If you're a passionate cook who wants to develop your skills, work with great produce and be part of an ambitious restaurant, we'd love to hear from you.
The Basin Dining Room has proudly received 14/20 in the Sydney Morning Herald Good Food Guide for the past three consecutive editions, giving us a strong foundation to build on - but we believe there's much more ahead.
We're looking for chefs with ambition, creativity and a genuine love of food who want to be part of our next chapter.
The Opportunity
We have recently welcomed our new Head Chef, Gabby Bombara, who joins us after her time at Oncore by Clare Smyth.
Gabby brings experience from one of Australia's most respected fine dining kitchens and is passionate about creating produce-driven, approachable food while mentoring and developing the chefs around her.
This is a great opportunity to work alongside an experienced and ambitious Head Chef, develop your cooking skills and have genuine input into the food we produce.
We're not looking for someone who just wants to turn up and follow recipes. We want chefs who love what they do, enjoy experimenting with ingredients and techniques, and take pride in producing delicious food.

A genuine love of food. We want someone who shares our passion for great produce, cooking and eating out.

A great cook. Someone with strong fundamentals, good technique and an eye for detail.

A team player. Someone who enjoys working alongside other passionate chefs and contributes to a positive kitchen environment.
-
Ownership and pride. Someone who can confidently run their section, maintain high standards and deliver consistently during busy services.
-
Career goals. Whether you want to become a Sous Chef, Head Chef or eventually open your own restaurant, we'd love to help you get there.
What We Offer

The opportunity to work alongside and learn from an experienced Head Chef

A Good Food Guide-recognised restaurant with ambitions to achieve more
