Join the newly awarded Michelin star restaurant team at Amisfield, situated on the shores of Lake Hayes in Queenstown.
We're looking for a new Captain to join our Cellar Door & Bistro offer — a hands-on, guest-facing role where you'll bring our wines and food to life, conducting tastings, serving food, managing your own section, and turning every guest into an Amisfield ambassador.
You'll receive wine and food training, and work with the rest of the team to achieve cellar door and bistro targets. You'll also gain insight into our winemaking, viticulture, and restaurant operations — an incredible opportunity to grow your knowledge and career in the wine and hospitality industry.

Enjoy engaging with people from all over the world and creating memorable experiences
Are confident conducting tastings and comfortable serving food with the same care and knowledge
Can manage your own section — pacing, timing, and guest experience all in your hands
Have hospitality, sales, food service, or retail experience
Are a proactive team player with strong communication and organisational skills
(Bonus!) Have a WSET qualification, Duty Manager's Certificate, or CRM experience
What's in it for You
Full-time hours (30+ hrs per week) and daytime shifts, Wednesday to Sunday
Competitive remuneration + the opportunity to earn uncapped commission
Perks such as a generous wine allowance, discounts on dining and wine, health and financial insurance, wellbeing support, and free staff meals
A supportive, professional, and award-winning team environment
Unmatched views, outstanding food and wine, and the chance to grow your career with one of New Zealand's most celebrated hospitality teams
