About Aka Rooftop Bar
Aka sits above Auckland's CBD on Level 15 of Radisson RED — the city's only full-service rooftop destination with a Pan-Asian kitchen serious enough to match the view.


About the Role

  • Follow food safety and hygiene standards in line with New Zealand food safety regulations

  • Work closely with the kitchen team to ensure smooth service during busy periods

  • Support menu development and kitchen organisation where required


About You

  • Proven experience working in Asian, Asian Fusion, or Japanese/Chinese cuisine

  • Experience preparing sushi, dim sum, or modern Asian dishes is highly desirable

  • Strong knife skills and understanding of Asian cooking techniques

  • Ability to work in a fast-paced kitchen environment

  • A positive team player with a strong work ethic

  • Relevant culinary qualification or equivalent experience preferred


What We Offer

  • Opportunity to work in an exciting new rooftop dining concept in Auckland CBD

  • A dynamic and supportive kitchen team

  • Competitive salary based on experience

  • Career growth opportunities within a growing hospitality group


If you are passionate about Asian cuisine, creativity, and high-quality dining, we would love to hear from you.
