Company Description

Why Join Sodexo?

Sodexo is a people business, employing over400,000people worldwide and thousands in Australia. Our hospitality all-rounders play a key role in keeping our sites functioning and well-maintained for village residents' safety, comfort, and well-being. Working with Sodexo is more than a job; it's a chance to be part of something greater because we believe our everyday actions have a big impact. Here's what's on offer:

  • Access to fantastic Village facilities and lifestyle options including gyms, fitness classes, pools, tennis courts, and social activities (dependent on Village)

  • Competitive salary, many training, upskilling, and development opportunities and an outstanding benefits and recognition program

  • Great teamwork and a solid group of people around you!

Job Description

What's the role?

We're on the lookout for passionate and trade-qualified Chefs living in or near Darwin to join our teams across regional Northern Territory and Far North Queensland. These Fly-In Fly-Out (FIFO) and Bus-In Bus-Out (BIBO) roles offer an exciting opportunity to step into the thriving mining and resources sector.

If you thrive in a fast-paced kitchen, have experience in bulk catering, and bring a positive, can-do attitude-this could be the next big step in your culinary career. You'll play a key role in delivering high-quality meals that keep our remote workforces energised and supported.

  • Prepare and deliver meals across breakfast, crib, and dinner services

  • Maintain food safety standards and HACCP compliance

  • Work collaboratively in a high-performing kitchen team

  • Support quality and consistency across services

This is more than just a job-it's a meaningful career in one of Australia's most vital industries.

Qualifications

Who are we looking for?

  • Certificate III/IV in Commercial Cookery

  • Experience in bulk catering or high-volume kitchens

  • FIFO or remote site experience desirable, but not essential

  • Sound knowledge of food safety and hygiene practices

  • Flexible team player with strong communication skills

  • Ability to pass a pre-employment medical (including drug & alcohol testing)

  • Australian Citizenship, Full Australian working rights or eligible for visa sponsorship

Working on-site means 11-hour days on a 2:1 roster (two weeks on, one week off).
