Looking for Chefs
The Terraces at St Andrews Village is a busy, vibrant restaurant, well regarded across the area for the high quality of food presentation and service delivery. We have made a name for ourselves for our seasonal menus with a mix of on-trend and classic dishes and creativity. Our busy café, with a wide selection of pastries and barista coffees, serves breakfast and an all day menu.
You might already have great experience in a busy kitchen, maybe an individual restaurant or a hotel, serving European-style cuisine, or you might just be looking to start out on this culinary journey. Either way, you will report to the Head chef, and he will train and guide you at whatever stage you are at within this great industry.
If you have passion to listen and learn, then reach out as our Head Chef has overseen many apprenticeships.
This is a full time position and if you believe you have the right experience, please forward your cv and covering letter to Elizabeth Jacob at elizabethj@sav.co.nz
Live Q&A: Garden maintenance with Crewcut
This Wednesday, we're having another Neighbourly Q&A session. This time with John Bracewell from Crewcut.
John Bracewell, former Black Caps coach turned Franchisee Development Manager and currently the face of Crewcut’s #Movember campaign, knows a thing or two about keeping the grass looking sharp—whether it’s on a cricket pitch or in your backyard!
As a seasoned Crewcut franchisee, John is excited to answer your lawn and gardening questions. After years of perfecting the greens on the field, he's ready to share tips on how to knock your garden out of the park. Let's just say he’s as passionate about lush lawns as he is about a good game of cricket!
John is happy to answer questions about lawn mowing, tree/hedge trimming, tidying your garden, ride on mowing, you name it! He'll be online on Wednesday, 27th of November to answer them all.
