FOODstyling is looking for an experienced, creative and motivated Pastry Cook / Food Prep Superstar to join our team at our Moorabbin prep kitchen.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who loves being in the kitchen, enjoys working independently and wants the freedom to bring ideas to the table – not just follow a production list!
Initially a casual position, there is the opportunity for the right person to move into a more permanent part-time role, with additional hours also available during our busier catering periods.
A LITTLE ABOUT US
FOODstyling is a Melbourne-based catering business that also operates two Canteen Eats cafés, located in Doveton and Wheelers Hill.
Our Moorabbin kitchen is the heart of our food production, where we make many of our café and catering favourites from scratch – including cakes, slices, tray bakes, sausage rolls and a growing range of sweet and savoury goodies.
And this is where YOU come in!
We want someone who can help us continue producing the favourites our customers already love, while also bringing fresh ideas, new recipes and a little creativity to help grow our homemade range.
WE'D LOVE TO MEET YOU IF YOU...
• Have a minimum of 3 years' baking/pastry experience, ideally in a commercial kitchen.
• Are confident working independently without needing constant supervision.
• Are organised, motivated and can work at a good, consistent pace.
• Take genuine pride in producing quality, great-looking food.
• Are comfortable handling and preparing all food and protein types.
• Have ideas! We love people who contribute, experiment and bring something new to the kitchen.
• Are reliable, personable and well presented.
• Have a current full driver's licence and reliable transport to get to and from our Moorabbin kitchen.
WHAT WILL YOU BE DOING?
No two days are exactly the same, but your role may include:
• Baking cakes, slices, muffins and tray bakes.
• Preparing our homemade sausage rolls and savoury products.
• General food and catering preparation.
• Preparing and packing products for our café locations.
• Helping develop new products, flavours and recipes.
• Keeping our kitchen clean, organised and food-safe.
• Occasionally delivering products to our cafés during your shift – a FOODstyling vehicle is provided.
THE HOURS
Monday, Wednesday & Friday
Approximately 10am–3pm
There is some flexibility around start and finish times; however, shifts need to be worked during the day.
As our catering business moves through busier periods, there will also be opportunities to pick up additional hours and shifts.

✓ Great daytime hours
✓ No late-night kitchen shifts
✓ $33–$40 per hour
✓ Opportunity to move into a permanent part-time role
✓ Additional hours during busy periods
✓ Employee discount
✓ Free food & drinks
✓ Creative input encouraged

SOUND LIKE YOUR KIND OF JOB?
For us, reliability, personality, presentation and a genuine love of food matter. We're a hands-on, growing small business, and we're looking for someone who wants to become a valued part of the FOODstyling team – someone who will take ownership of their role, contribute ideas and help us create even more delicious products.
If you're an experienced baker or pastry cook who loves creating great food and thinks, "Yep, this sounds like me!" – we'd love to meet you.
