We live for the buzz of a busy service, the smell of fresh sourdough pizza, and the hum of happy customers!

Be part of a highly successful, tight-knit team that celebrates wins, works hard, and delivers the good vibes, always!

Who are we looking for?

Someone who loves the buzz of the kitchen and can stay cool, calm and collected under pressure. Experience in a busy kitchen, particularly with pizza or dough, is highly desirable, but it isn’t essential. If you’re keen to learn, we’ll provide full training and support along the way. Most importantly, you’re a true team player with a passion for pizza perfection and an eye for upholding our incredibly high standards of quality and consistency.

You'll need to be available evenings and weekends as that’s when the real magic happens here at Tony’s. In return, we make sure things are fair, with a balanced rostering system that includes daytime shifts, that work for the whole team.
