Camp Catering Assistant - Multiple Casual Roles

Students Explore Australia Pty Ltd is on a mission to connect young people with nature, as a means of improving their wellbeing. We predominantly achieve this through delivering school camps for primary and high schools across Australia, and also work with universities, accommodation providers and other groups.

Our core values are:

• We strive for good vibes everyday
• We are hungry to achieve our personal bests
• We are highly organised and disciplined

We are a for-purpose business that takes pride in our engaging work culture and positive working environment. We emphasise personal growth and development in our staff to complement our fast-growing business.

Role Description:

The successful candidate will travel with our team to different locations across South Australia, Victoria and in some cases Brisbane, Gold Coast, Melbourne and Syndey to assist with catering school camps and study tour programs. You will work within a team to deliver a high quality of food service to our campers, including food preparation, cooking, cleaning, and adhering to food hygiene and safety standards. You must be willing to adapt to different kitchens and facilities in each location. For the duration of the programs you will stay on-site, with accommodation and meals included in addition to your daily rate.
