Chef de Partie and Commis Chef

Launch Eddie’s | Newcastle Coastline

Be part of something from the very beginning.

Eddie’s is a newly refurbished coastal venue with a brand-new fit-out, set to become one of Newcastle’s most recognised hospitality destinations. With a strong food focus and a brand-new kitchen, this is a venue built to deliver quality at scale.

We’re building our foundational kitchen team — Chef de Partie & Commis Chef — and looking for people who want more than just a job. If you’re passionate about food and want to shape a kitchen from day one, this is your opportunity.
