Chef de partie: Blue Dolphin Resort

With properties in some of Australia’s most iconic locations, NRMA Parks & Resorts provide accommodation that suits every budget, style, and occasion – from campsites to luxury resorts. We connect holidaymakers with over 50 incredible destinations to create unforgettable holiday experiences.

Part of the trusted NRMA Group, a member-owned brand, our passionate team works together to make holiday magic happen—it's not just our job, it's in our nature.

Create great food in a kitchen with a view!

Forget the traditional restaurant kitchen. At Blue Dolphin Holiday Resort, you'll work from our modern, purpose-built food truck, creating fresh, delicious meals for guests enjoying one of Australia's favourite holiday destinations.

We're looking for a passionate Chef de partie who thrives in a fast-paced environment, loves great food, and enjoys being part of a close-knit team delivering memorable dining experiences.

This is a hands-on role with plenty of variety. One minute you'll be preparing breakfast for holidaymakers, the next you'll be serving up crowd favourites during a busy lunch rush. If you enjoy the energy of a dynamic kitchen and the relaxed atmosphere of coastal living, you'll fit right in.

With trading hours generally between 6:30am and 8:00pm (ish), flexibility across mornings, evenings, weekends and peak holiday periods is key.

What you'll do:

• Prepare and cook fresh, quality menu items within our unique food truck environment.
• Help deliver fast, friendly service while maintaining high food quality and presentation standards.
• Support daily food preparation, stock management and kitchen operations.
• Maintain exceptional food safety, cleanliness and hygiene standards.
• Work closely with the Food & Beverage team to create great guest experiences.
• Bring ideas, energy and a positive attitude to a fun and collaborative team.

What you'll bring:

• Previous experience as a Chef de partie or strong experience in a fast-paced kitchen environment.
• A passion for great food and delivering quality every time.
• The ability to stay calm, organised and efficient during busy service periods.
• Strong knowledge of food safety and hygiene practices.
• A team-first attitude and willingness to jump in wherever needed.
• Confidence working in a compact kitchen where multitasking is part of the fun.
• Flexibility to work a rotating roster, including weekends and holiday periods.
