We have an exciting opportunity for a Breakfast Chef to join the team at The Convent Hunter Valley, located in the heart of Pokolbin. You will be an integral part of delivering our personalised and bespoke breakfast dining experience to our guests.
About The Convent Hunter Valley
Renowned for its sweeping views, it is the combination of location, architecture and ambience that makes The Convent the most magical place in the Hunter Valley.
With 19 intimate guest-rooms and suites, The Convent offers a range of accommodation options to meet the needs of every guest, each of which has been lovingly crafted to embrace you in the comforts of a grand manor house. A short stroll down the tree-lined driveway is Circa 1876, located in an historic cottage on the picturesque grounds of Roscrea Estate. Circa 1876 quite literally brings the 'farm to fork' ethos to life as guests overlook the organic kitchen garden. Overlooking the Wisteria Courtyard at The Convent, Restaurant Eighty Eight is a more relaxed dining experience.
