Commis Chef Luxury Brand Woodstock

Position: Commis Chef Luxury Brand | Woodstock, Cape Town

We’re looking for a focused, hands‑on Commis Chef to join our fast‑moving production kitchen. This is not a fine‑dining plating role. It’s precision, batch control, recipe accuracy and consistency ll details matter. Clean systems matter. Standards matter.

We produce premium, small‑batch ice cream for retail stores and restaurant partners. The kitchen runs on structure, timing and teamwork. If you like being busy, working methodically and knowing your work directly impacts what lands in the scoop cabinet — this role will suit you.

You’ll support daily production across ice cream bases, inclusions and baked components. Expect measuring, prepping, cleaning, organising and repeating — properly. This is about consistency and pride in process.

You’ll work closely with the Head Chef and production team to keep quality high and output steady.

• Weighing and preparing ingredients accurately
• Assisting with daily ice cream production
• Supporting baked elements and flavour components
• Keeping your section clean, organised and compliant
• Following food safety and hygiene standards strictly
• Assisting with stock rotation (FIFO) and deliveries
• Maintaining production discipline and consistency

• 1–2 years in a professional kitchen or production environment
• Culinary qualification advantageous but not essential
• Naturally detail‑oriented
• Reliable and physically able to handle a production environment
• Comfortable with repetition and process
• Positive attitude and team mindset

• A high‑standard, structured kitchen
• Clear systems and expectations
• Opportunity to grow as the brand expands
• To be part of a team building something exciting in Cape Town

If you work clean, move with purpose and take pride in doing things properly — we’d like to meet you.

Send your CV and a short note explaining why this kind of kitchen suits you.
