Head Creative Chef
Together Nourished / Undressed
We're looking for a Creative Chef to work across both studios; someone who brings skill and craft to the kitchen and a point of view. This isn't a role for someone who clocks in and follows a brief. It's a role for a chef who genuinely cares about the product they're putting out into the world.
- Join two of Melbourne's design-led creative catering studios
- Real input into menus, food direction and how the product looks
- A role for a chef who thinks as much as they cook
Together Nourished is a catering, events and food styling studio that works with some of Australia's most discerning brands and clients. Undressed is a creative catering, styling, content and recipe creation studio, tactile, atmospheric, and meticulous about detail. Both are growing. Both are deeply committed to the way food looks and feels, not just how it tastes.
Your Responsibilities
Day to day
- Develop and evolve menus across both Together Nourished and Undressed
- Lead kitchen prep and manage workflows across events of varying scale and format
- Maintain quality control and presentation standards before anything is delivered or served
- Work on-site at events, ensuring the food is executed precisely as intended
Success looks like
- Food that consistently reflects the visual and creative identity of both studios
- A kitchen that runs smoothly, is organised, efficient and calm under pressure
- Menus that evolve thoughtfully and respond to client briefs and seasonal produce
- Strong creative relationships with both Anna (Together Nourished) and Zoe (Undressed)
What you bring
- 2+ years of experience as a chef; a catering background is highly regarded
- The ability to handle high volume and tight deadlines without compromising on quality
- A genuine eye for modern plating and food aesthetics; you notice the details
- Independence and ownership in the kitchen; you don't need to be managed
Who you are
- You think about food beyond the plate - texture, visual language, the story it tells
- You're drawn to brands that care about craft, design and intention
- You're comfortable working across two distinct creative worlds and adapting your approach to each
- Low ego, high standards, you take the work seriously without taking yourself too seriously
What We Offer
- A stable role across two growing, creatively driven studios
- Direct influence on the menus and food direction of both brands
- Diverse projects, clients and event formats; no two weeks are the same
- Competitive salary, discussed individually based on experience
