FIFO Chef

Hays is hiring experienced FIFO chef to start immediately!

Your new company

Hays works alongside some of Western Australia's premier accommodation and catering providers, connecting skilled hospitality professionals with ongoing FIFO opportunities statewide.
As a market-leading recruitment specialist, Hays offers access to a variety of FIFO assignments, competitive hourly rates, and dedicated support from consultants who understand the unique demands of remote site catering.
We are currently looking for experienced FIFO Chefs who can seamlessly transition into high-volume camp kitchens and are ready to take advantage of short-notice opportunities.

Your new role

We are seeking Trade Qualified Chefs for casual FIFO assignments throughout Western Australia.
Working within large-scale accommodation and catering facilities, you will be responsible for preparing and serving quality meals in fast-paced environments while maintaining high standards of food safety, hygiene, and compliance.
These roles generally involve 10–12-hour shifts, usually on a 2:1 roster, covering both day and night shifts, with all flights departing from Perth Airport.
As these positions support varying workforce requirements, successful candidates must be adaptable, reliable, and available to mobilise at short notice when opportunities arise.

What you'll need to succeed

To be successful in these positions, you will have:

  • Certificate III in Commercial Cookery (or equivalent)
  • Proven FIFO Chef experience within a remote camp or village setting
  • Two recent and contactable work references
  • Ability to pass pre-employment medicals, drug and alcohol testing, and ongoing site compliance requirements
  • Current WA driver's licence
  • Be living in Western Australia
  • Be available to FIFO from Perth Airport
  • Flexibility to accept roster opportunities and short-notice mobilisation requests
These opportunities are ideal for chefs who understand the realities of FIFO work, maintain up-to-date site requirements, and can mobilise efficiently when required.

What you'll get in return

  • Ongoing FIFO opportunities across Western Australia
  • Competitive pay rates with weekly pay cycles
  • The chance to work with leading accommodation and catering operators
  • Opportunities for ongoing rostered work and potential permanent placements
  • Continued support from Hays' experienced recruitment team
  • Regular opportunities for dependable and high-performing chefs
Candidates who consistently demonstrate reliability, flexibility, and professionalism are often considered first for repeat work and longer-term opportunities.
