Build your skills across multiple kitchen styles in one unique venue.
Full-time hours, including evenings and weekend shifts.
Ocean Exmouth is entering an exciting new chapter. With a new Head Chef on board, we’re transforming our food offer—raising
standards, refreshing menus, and creating a kitchen we’re proud of.
We’re now looking for a Chef to join our growing team and be part of this journey from the ground up.
What makes this role different
* Work across multiple dining styles in one building
* Gain broad, hands-on experience in a fast-paced, varied kitchen
* Learn from an experienced and supportive Head Chef
* Be part of a newly evolving kitchen with real opportunities to grow
* Our integrated Procure Wizard system, linked to tills for accurate stock and smoother operations
* Varied shifts including evenings and weekends ideal for building experience in a dynamic environment

This could suit:
* Someone starting out in hospitality who wants to build a career in the kitchen
* A Chef with some experience looking to develop further
* A team player who enjoys a busy, hands-on environment
* Someone reliable, motivated and proud of the work they do
Ideally, you’ll bring:
