About this role
You'd be joining the pre-opening culinary team at Rivo Restaurant within AC by Marriott's new Gold Coast property, taking on a Chef de Partie role that combines hands-on cooking with section leadership. This is a chance to help establish kitchen routines and standards from day one rather than stepping into an established operation. You'll work under the Executive Chef and Sous Chef, managing your station, maintaining quality and consistency during service, and supporting junior team members as they come on board.
The role demands strong technical skills—precise food preparation, plating, and an eye for quality—alongside the organisational ability to keep your section running smoothly under pressure. You'll need food safety certification and ideally at least a year of supervisory experience, though the emphasis is on someone who can both execute dishes well and step up to lead when needed. Flexibility with shift patterns, including evenings, weekends and public holidays, is essential.
This suits someone who thrives in a high-performing kitchen environment and wants to be part of building something new. Marriott's benefits package includes global career pathways, associate perks across their worldwide properties, and structured learning support. If you're looking for stability in a full-time role with a major hospitality group and the appeal of shaping a restaurant's culinary culture from its launch, this pre-opening position offers that opportunity.
