Assistant Manager who thrives in a fast-paced environment, loves classic coastal pub culture, and knows how to keep a multi-department venue firing on all cylinders!

"The Pelican" is a buzzing local centerpiece. Whether you’re steering a busy dining service out on the water-view deck, orchestrating high-energy trade in the sports bar during live games, or managing shift flow across our gaming lounge and event spaces, this role demands a leader with sharp operational instincts who loves being right in the heart of the action. We need someone who can maintain gold-standard venue presentation, keep service standards tight, and deliver warm, authentic hospitality to our loyal regulars and Sunshine Coast visitors.
