In Australia, Chef = Chief! A Chef in Australia must be able to demonstrate a broad range of kitchen management skills and experience, in addition to cooking skills. This includes people management (e.g. rotas, coaching, training & development, handling conflict), finance management (budgeting, costings, stock control) as well as daily operational management including overseeing Food Hygiene standards and Health & Safety.

If your roles have not included these management tasks in depth, you will likely be advised to complete the Cook skills assessment. Any questions please make contact with the Down Under Centre.
