Pizza Chef
Visa sponsorship
Hospitality · Melbourne, VIC, Australia · Full-Time · $65,000 - $70,000/yr · Visa: Employer sponsored
This is a straightforward opportunity for a skilled pizza maker. A Melbourne hospitality business with established Italian restaurants needs a full-time Pizza Chef at its pizzeria, starting immediately.
The standard is high and the method is traditional. You will hand-stretch every base, fire pizzas in a wood-fired oven, prepare the dough and control its fermentation, and own the pizza section when service gets heavy. Every pizza that leaves your station must match the last one in quality, cooking and presentation. The employer wants someone who shows up, stays organised and genuinely cares about Italian food.
The role is long term, with a route to senior or management level, and sponsorship is available for the right candidates.
Your CV is your first impression, so make it count. Put your Pizza Chef years, your wood-fired oven work and your dough skills where a hiring manager sees them first. Put a wood-fired pizza CV together on Build AI CV and apply with it.
