Job Description

Oaks Aukland Hotel are looking for an experienced and passionate Head Chef to oversee the kitchen operations at : DASH - on a full-time basis.

: DASH Auckland has all the ingredients for success – a great team, an unbeatable location, and a concept built for energy.

Reimagined for Auckland’s dynamic dining scene, : DASH is more than a venue – it’s a movement. Fast, fun, flavourful, and full of intent, it’s where pace meets personality, and every service runs on rhythm. Within a few blocks you’ll find plenty of places doing the basics right – but we’re the ones with a story. A story about simple, bold food done brilliantly, served with purpose, and delivered by a team that loves what they do.

The menu moves at guest speed – grab a coffee, share a Caesar, or settle in for sliders, skewers, and a craft beer before the show. Every dish is built for flow, flavour, and consistency – the fundamentals done right, every time.

Key Responsibilities

• Supervising kitchen team members, ensuring excellence and consistency in the product delivered to customers.
• Development of new menus and associated costing.
• Running stock control and managing all BOH food and wage costs.
• Enforcing daily and weekly systems and procedures to ensure a high level of presentation, hygiene, service, and product quality.
• Ensuring compliance with all health and safety regulations and food standards.
• Recruiting, inducting, training and rostering of BOH team members.

Qualifications

We’re not chasing fine dining or trends; we’re about attitude, energy, and execution. If you thrive in a fast-paced, people-first environment and love the buzz of a busy service, you’ll fit right in.
