We’re looking for a skilled, organised cook to join our team, focusing on prep and service in Caribe’s central kitchen, with assistance to El Fogón Grill as needed.

You’ll prepare proteins, sauces and other core recipes, handle large production batches, and keep dishes moving during busy service with consistent quality and presentation.

âś… The ability to work quickly, efficiently and accurately
âś… Experience following and scaling recipes for large batches

You’ll need to manage your prep, keep your station clean and organised, and communicate well with the team. Experience with Latin American food or grill cooking is welcome, but solid kitchen skills and a willingness to learn are what matter most.

We’re building a supportive team that takes pride in its food and helps each other succeed.

About us

Caribe Latin Kitchen is based at Little High Eatery in central Christchurch, serving Latin American street food and South American-style barbecue.

We're busy, lively and informal. Our customers can see the kitchens, the food moves fast, and no two services are quite the same.

We're looking for someone who brings good energy, takes pride in doing things properly, and can become a reliable part of the team rather than someone just looking to pick up the occasional shift.

Hours: To be discussed with the right applicant. Regular days, nights and weekend shifts available.

Interested?
Send us a message with a little about yourself, your hospitality experience, your availability, and whether you currently hold an LCQ and/or Duty Manager’s Certificate.
