FIFO Chef

Job description

Your new company

At Hays, we partner with some of Western Australia's leading accommodation and catering service providers, connecting experienced hospitality professionals with ongoing FIFO opportunities across Western Australia.
As a global leader in specialist recruitment, Hays provides access to a range of FIFO opportunities, competitive pay rates, and ongoing support from a dedicated consultant who understands the demands of remote site-based work.
We are seeking experienced FIFO Chefs who can confidently step into high-volume camp environments and are available to mobilise at short notice.

Your new role

We are currently seeking Trade Qualified Chefs for casual FIFO opportunities across Western Australia.
Working within large-scale accommodation and catering operations, you will be responsible for preparing and delivering quality meals in high-volume environments while maintaining strict food safety and compliance standards.
These positions typically involve 10–12 hour shifts, typically 2/1 rosters, across day and night rosters, with all flights departing from Perth Airport.
As these are casual opportunities supporting workforce demands across multiple operations, successful candidates must be flexible, responsive, and available to mobilise at short notice when required.

What you'll need to succeed

To be considered for these opportunities, you must have:

  • Certificate III in Commercial Cookery (or equivalent)
  • Previous FIFO chef experience in a remote camp or village environment
  • Two recent and contactable references
  • Ability to pass pre-employment medical assessments, drug and alcohol screening, and ongoing site testing requirements
  • Current WA driver's licence
  • Be currently based in Western Australia
  • Be able to FIFO from Perth Airport
  • Availability to accept shifts and roster opportunities at short notice

These positions are best suited to candidates who understand the demands of FIFO life, maintain current documentation and inductions, and can mobilise efficiently when opportunities arise.

What you'll get in return

  • Access to ongoing FIFO opportunities across Western Australia
  • Competitive hourly rates and weekly pay
  • Opportunity to work with leading accommodation and catering providers
  • Potential for ongoing rostered and permanent opportunities
  • Dedicated support from the Hays industry experts
  • Consistent opportunities for reliable and high-performing candidates

Candidates who demonstrate flexibility, reliability, and a strong work ethic are often prioritised for repeat assignments and ongoing opportunities.
