Careers · Brighton + Glenelg + Christies Beach
We’ll teach you the rest
Turn up, care about the food, talk to people. Everything else we can show you.
Francesca’s Pizza + Sandos is hiring across Brighton and Glenelg, plus a new kitchen opening at Christies Beach in September 2026. Kitchen and front of house, full time, part time and casual. Wood fired Neapolitan and Sicilian pizza, focaccia sandos baked fresh every morning, and catering at Adelaide Oval. No experience needed for team member roles. We train from scratch and we promote from inside.
Most kitchens teach you nothing
You already know how this usually goes. You get handed a uniform, someone shows you the till for ten minutes, and then you’re on your own. Six months later you’re doing the same job you did in week one.
That’s not how we run it. Every person who starts here gets the same seven phase onboarding, a named buddy on day one, and a sit down at day 30 and again at day 90. Those dates go in the calendar before your first shift, not after someone remembers.
Somebody is actually watching
A buddy on day one. A supervisor on the floor in week one. A proper sit down at day 30 and day 90 where we ask how it’s going and you get to answer honestly.
The path is written down
Team Member, then Confirmed, then Shift Supervisor, then Assistant Manager, then Manager. Not vibes. An actual checklist with your name on it that you tick off as you go.
We pay for your tickets
Food Safety Supervisor and RSA, both SA accredited. You book them, we reimburse you when you finish, and we pay for the hours you spent doing them.
The ladder
Where this goes if you want it to
Nobody gets pushed up. But if you want it, the ladder is there and it’s the same one for everybody.
Team Member
You learn the food, the standard and the shop. Day 1 buddy, day 30 and day 90 check ins. No experience needed.
Confirmed Team Member
You can run your section without someone standing behind you.
Shift Supervisor
Four weeks minimum, but the real gate is the reps: three shadow shifts, two opens, two closes, and a capstone shift a manager watches you run. Plus your Food Safety and RSA, which we pay for.
Manager
Six weeks across five modules, then a two week confirmation period. This is the one that changes what you earn and what you’re responsible for.
Someone on four shifts a week gets through the supervisor program in four weeks. Someone on two shifts takes longer, and that’s fine. We’d rather you were ready than quick.
What we ask
What we actually want from you
Not a resume full of hospitality. Half our best people had none.
- Turn up when you said you would
- Care whether the food that leaves the pass is right
- Talk to people like they’re people, not order numbers
- Leave the kitchen the way you’d want to find it
That’s it. The pizza we can teach you.
