Senior Cook

Gemini is a small neighbourhood wine bar with a strong local following and a genuine community spirit. We serve a Euro-leaning, seasonal menu that’s high-quality but never fussy — food that pairs beautifully with a glass of wine (or coffee). From breakfast through supper, our kitchen team brings creativity and passion to every dish.

With a small, close-knit kitchen, we’re looking for an experienced individual who thrives in hands-on environments. This is a unique opportunity to shape menus, influence the direction of the venue, and be part of a team that values both excellence and balance.

About You

• Minimum 2 years’ experience in a senior role in a similar style venue.
• Excellent communication and organisational skills.
• Strong knowledge of seasonal produce, contemporary food trends, and menu costing.
• Passion for hospitality, creativity, and continued professional growth.

What We Offer

• Competitive salary.
• Creative freedom to design menus and influence the business as it grows.
• A flexible roster with balanced shifts (we trade mornings through to late evenings).
• Generous staff discounts for in-house dining, pantry items, and our bottle shop.
• A supportive, energetic, community-focused workplace.

If you’re excited about creating food that connects people and want to help shape the next chapter of Gemini, we’d love to hear from you.
