Pizza Chef

Visa sponsorship

Hospitality · Melbourne, VIC, Australia · Full-Time · $65,000 - $70,000/yr · Visa: Employer sponsored

This Melbourne business runs several Italian restaurants, and its pizzeria is looking for an experienced Pizza Chef. Expect a full-time position, an immediate start if you are free, and a realistic route up into a senior or management role over time.

The team values reliability, organisation and a love of Italian food, plus calm in a busy dining room. Sponsorship is available for the right candidates.

Pizza is a craft you can show on paper, so list your dough and fermentation know-how, your wood-fired oven experience and your pace on a busy night. Create a pizza chef CV that a manager can skim fast and put it all in order.

Key Responsibilities

  • Take charge of the pizza section when service is busy.
  • Make Italian-style pizza: stretch the dough by hand and bake it in a wood-fired oven.
  • Prepare and ferment the dough, and keep quality, cooking and presentation consistent.

Requirements & Eligibility

  • A minimum of 2–3 years’ experience as a Pizza Chef
  • A strong Italian-style pizza background
  • Confident stretching dough by hand and cooking in a wood-fired oven
  • A good grasp of dough preparation and fermentation
  • Confident running the pizza section during busy service
  • Steady quality, cooking and presentation every time
  • Reliable, organised and passionate about Italian food, and at ease in a busy restaurant
