Cook – Guzman y Gomez (GYG) Dee Why

At Guzman y Gomez Mexican Kitchen, our mission has always been to reinvent fast-food. We’re Australia’s only fast-food restaurant to be 100% clean, meaning there are no added preservatives, artificial flavours, added colours or unacceptable additives in our food. We’re incredibly proud of our amazing people, and the unique way we celebrate Mexican culture in everything we do.

Can you handle the heat? Love fresh food? Ready to rule the kitchen?

We are looking for passionate, high-energy Cooks to join the team at our Dee Why franchise. If you have a passion for food, love working at a lightning-fast pace, and want to be part of an epic crew, this is your sign to apply!

As a GYG Cook, you are at the absolute heart of our restaurant operations. You won't just be assembly-lining fast food; you will be working with 100% clean, fresh ingredients to bring vibrant Mexican flavours to life for hundreds of locals and loyal customers. 

What You'll Do:

• Prepare fresh ingredients and cook premium proteins according to the GYG recipe guide.

• Master the grill, station presentation, and high-volume food prep.

• Maintain exceptional food safety, sanitation, and kitchen cleanliness standards.

• Work collaboratively with the front-of-house crew to ensure rapid, high-quality order fulfilment.

What We’re Looking For:

• Attitude Over Experience: Prior commercial kitchen experience is highly desirable, but a "can-do" attitude, punctuality, and eagerness to learn are what matter most. We provide full training!

• Speed & Stamina: Ability to thrive under pressure in a bustling, fast-paced environment.

• Team Players: A friendly, approachable demeanour and great communication skills.
