JOB DESCRIPTION

Absorb the abundance. Ace Hotel Sydney seeks kind, curious and industrious humans to join our team.

Ace Hotel Sydney is our first-ever spot in Australia, set in the verve of Surry Hills. Inspired by the neighbourhood's vibrant rhythm, Ace Sydney is home to a bustling public Lobby alive nearly nightly with DJs and performers, a rebellious art program and sunken lounge just off the Lobby bar. We’ve also got three distinct restaurants led by award-winning culinary pros, including celebrated Copenhagen-based Australian chef, Beau Clugston's  Kiln; our oasis for fresh, seasonal fare called LOAM; and a day-to-night laneway café, Good Chemistry. Now all we need is you.

 

About you
You are a calm and positive team player with a passion for food and the customer experience, leading by example in everything you do. With clear and concise communication, you seamlessly coordinate with both the kitchen and front-of-house teams, effortlessly taking direction in a high-energy environment.

As service unfolds, you thrive working autonomously while delivering high-quality dishes and a smooth, cohesive dining experience. Ideally, you have at least three years of experience in pastry or desserts, along with previous experience as a Chef de Partie in a kitchen with diverse offerings, including training junior chefs, managing orders, and overseeing stock levels. A strong understanding of kitchen safety protocols is essential, ensuring a safe and supportive work environment as you collaborate with your team.

 

The Perks
Joining our team means more than just working at one of Sydney's iconic venues. It's about becoming a key player in a community-driven, creative, and original team.
Here's what you can look forward to:

  • Exceptional Work Environment: Be part of one of Sydney's best new venues.
  • Team Emphasis: Join a team that values community, originality, and creativity.

And that's not all! Enjoy attractive tips and staff benefits, including:

  • Generous Discounts: 50% discount for you and 7 friends across all Ace Sydney food & beverage outlets (Kiln, Lobby, Loam, Good Chemistry).
  • Global Room Rate Discounts: Benefit from exclusive discounts on Ace accommodations worldwide.
  • Retail Perks: Access special discounts on Ace retail products.
    Plus, there's the opportunity to work with friends and earn extra rewards:
  • Work with Friends Bonus: Recommend a friend to work with us at Ace Sydney and receive a $300 bonus when they hit the 90-day mark.

Discover a workplace where excellence meets enjoyment, and your contributions are truly valued.
