Visa sponsorship
Hospitality · Melbourne, VIC, Australia · Full-Time · $79,500 - $80,000/yr · Visa: Employer sponsored
From Nairobi to Melbourne is a big step, and this Chef role is a concrete one. An Italian restaurant in the city wants a full-time cook for handmade pasta and traditional recipes, plus the daily running of its kitchen and its team.
The employer lists visa sponsorship for the role, so it may interest Kenyan cooks who are weighing up work in Australia. Read the duties first and compare them with what you have done in a busy kitchen.
An English CV should then lead with your Italian cuisine and pasta experience and any crew you have supervised. Prepare your chef CV with Build AI CV in minutes before you apply.
