What matters to us

We value people who bring a different perspective, who are passionate, curious, and innovative.  To be successful in this role, you will ideally have:

• Previous experience, whether part-time or full-time, in a similar food service role is preferred.  If you have basic cooking skills that would be desirable but is not essential

• Strong attention to detail and adherence to food safety and hygiene standards
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, contributing to a positive and supportive team environment
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills effectively enabling teamwork

We look forward to you joining our team and being part of our success.

Together we grow, Ka tipu tahi tatau.
