Palm Lake Group | Brisbane Queensland Australia
Expires: September 21, 2026
Run the best table on the Sunshine Coast. Cardón sits inside Pelican Waters Golf Club, looking out over a championship 18-hole Greg Norman-designed golf course, and we're after a hands-on Food & Beverage Manager to take the reins across restaurant, bar and functions.
This is a role with real autonomy. You'll set the standard on the floor, build and grow an exceptional team, and make Cardón the venue people must hold their event at. If you're the kind of operator who reads a room and gets a quiet satisfaction from a fully-booked weekend running like clockwork, this is your venue.
The role
You'll oversee daily operations across the Restaurant and Bar, and run private functions and corporate events in our function space from first enquiry through to delivery. You'll hold service standards, develop your team, manage budgets and labour, and continue to lift the guest experience. It's a seven-day venue, so you'll work a rotating roster including evenings, weekends and public holidays.
What you'll do
If you are an experienced hospitality leader with a passion for delivering outstanding guest experiences, developing high-performing teams, and driving operational excellence, we would love to hear from you.
Only shortlisted applicants will be contacted.
