Food Production Assistant (Full-Time) - Early Morning Shift
Sydney CBD | Full-Time, 5 days/week | Fixed Shifts| Done by 10am
This role starts at 1:30am. You'll work Monday to Friday - 1:30am to 10:00am. If those hours don't work for your life, our afternoon shift might suit you better -- search "Feedwell Catering Assistant" to find it.
This role is for those with experience in busy kitchens, commercial food prep, catering, delis, or any high-volume food environment -- you don't need to be a chef, but you need to know how to move and keep pace
We're Feedwell, one of Sydney's busiest high-volume fresh food catering businesses. We deliver thousands of fresh sandwiches, wraps, and baguettes daily to workplaces like Google, Amazon, Canva, and Louis Vuitton -- and our early morning crew are the ones who make it happen.
What You'll Do
You'll spend your shift across two areas:
Production (roughly half your shift)
- Produce sandwiches, wraps, and baguettes at high-volume, following our recipe cards and standards
- Assemble them to look great -- consistent portions, clean presentation, every time
Packing and Quality Assurance (roughly half your shift)
- Cut, display, and pack finished product neatly into our catering boxes and packaging
- Check that every label is correct -- including dietary and allergen labels
- Perform the final quality check before orders go out the door
This is hands-on, fast-paced, precise work. You'll be following set procedures, and taking real ownership of the quality of what goes out.
Who Thrives Here

Hear from our Team
"I started at Feedwell just making sandwiches. I wasn't looking for more at the time, just a stable job I could do well. They noticed, supported me, and helped me grow when I was ready. Now I'm in a more senior role, but it all started on the floor learning the basics properly." -- Oktaviana, now Packing Supervisor
"When I joined, I was just looking for something steady. What stood out from day one was that it's calm and organised -- not chaotic like other kitchens I'd worked in." -- Anne, now Operations Manager (started in a crew role in 2017)
