About the role
Located within QT Sydney, Gowings’ next story is inspired by New York’s Little Italy and steakhouse scene. QT Sydney’s dining institution, working with Creative Culinary Director and globally renowned chef, Sean Connolly and other respected chefs within the industry.
Gowings is an electric expression of simultaneously elegant and unpretentious Italo cuisine. It welcomes guests with the warmth of an open kitchen, heat of grills on high, roaming trolleys for tableside service – with a dose of punk and a tone of theatrics.
QT has put its stamp on delivering award-winning dining experiences and is loved for its curiously quirky drink lists. Always reflecting the local community, QT celebrates local artisans and design that is inspired by the history of the location in which it exists – and Gowings is no exception.
We are looking for a Full Time Pastry Chef de Partie to support the growth of one of Sydney’s leading culinary teams at Gowings Restaurant.
