Cookatoo places passionate, career-driven hospitality professionals in permanent roles across Perth and South West WA. If you live and breathe hospitality, we want to hear from you.
Every application is read personally by Alexander.
We don't work with everyone who applies, and that's the point. We only represent professionals we'd genuinely recommend, so when we put your name in front of a client, it means something.
You didn't fall into hospitality. You chose it. You talk about it, you read about it, and you'd do it even if there was an easier option.
You've worked in quality venues, taken on responsibility, and built a track record. You know the difference between good and exceptional.
You're not just looking for a job. You're looking for the right role at the right venue. You want to grow, lead, and be part of something excellent.
The best venues have teams that feel it. You care about the environment you work in, and you want to find somewhere you can stay and thrive.
We place permanent staff across the full spectrum of hospitality roles — from the pass to the front door. Every candidate we present is personally vetted against the specific demands of your position and venue.

A note on entry-level roles
The majority of our clients are looking to fill senior or senior-adjacent positions. If you're looking to get into hospitality for the first time or seeking an entry-level role, we can't always guarantee we'll have the right fit for you. That said, we'll always be upfront: if we don't have something suitable now, we may in the future.
A note on visa sponsorship
Cookatoo does not directly offer or arrange work sponsorships. However, some of our clients may be in a position to sponsor the right candidate; this is entirely at the individual employer's discretion and cannot be guaranteed. If sponsorship is important to you, please mention it clearly in your application.
Our vetting process is thorough, because our clients expect the best, and so do you.
Step 01
Fill out the form below. Include your CV, any relevant certifications, and, importantly, photos or examples of your work.
Step 02
If your application stands out, Alexander will personally reach out for a conversation about your experience, goals, and what the ideal role looks like for you.
Step 03
We speak with previous employers to confirm your experience and work ethic. Honesty in your application matters here.
Step 04
When a client role matches your profile, we'll present you as part of a curated shortlist, never a bulk CV drop. You'll always know before we present you.
Show Us Your Work: This Sets You Apart
Anyone can write a CV. What we want to see is your craft. Include photos of dishes you've plated, service you've led, events you've run, or kitchens you've been proud to call yours. If you post your work on Instagram or LinkedIn, let us know. We love to see it. This is the part of the application that tells us who you really are as a hospitality professional.
We place permanent hospitality professionals across two of WA's most exciting regions. Explore opportunities near you.
From the CBD's fine dining to Fremantle's waterfront venues, Perth's inner suburbs and beachside precincts — we have connections across the city.
Margaret River, Busselton, Dunsborough and beyond — WA's most celebrated wine and food region is full of exceptional venues and permanent career opportunities.
Based outside these areas? Apply anyway — we'd still love to hear from you.
