Join our team

Guided by Mind. Body. Planet.

Purpose-led work

Alsahwa, meaning “the awakening”, is a regenerative sanctuary on 30 acres of pristine Sunshine Coast hinterland in Palmwoods. Founded on a philosophy of Mind. Body. Planet., we bring together farm-to-table dining, immersive experiences, community events, and a deep commitment to the land. ēthos, our restaurant, is one expression of that vision. The team that brings it all to life is another.

We’re looking for people who want more than a job. If you’re drawn to purposeful work, connection with nature, and being part of something that genuinely means something, we’d love to hear from you.

Roles across Alsahwa Estate

We hire across every part of Alsahwa Estate – from the kitchen and dining room at ēthos, to the coordination and delivery of our events, to the operations and administration that keep a 30-acre regenerative agritourism venue running with care and intention.

Front of House

The people who welcome guests into the Alsahwa experience and hold that experience for the duration of their visit. Servers, hosts, baristas, bartenders, sommeliers, and floor managers who understand that hospitality, at its best, is about making people feel something.

Back of House

The kitchen at ēthos is guided by what’s growing in the estate’s gardens, in the food forest and from our network of local growers. Chefs, sous chefs, pastry cooks, kitchen hands, and prep cooks who thrive in an environment where the menu moves with the season.

Events

From intimate Trust Me dinners to long-table estate feasts, wellness mornings, community gatherings, and weddings, the events team at Alsahwa shapes some of the most distinctive experiences on the Sunshine Coast. Coordination, guest experience, setup and styling, and on-the-day logistics.

Admin & Operations

The work that keeps the estate running; scheduling, communications, administration, venue support, and the operational backbone that supports every guest-facing experience. An essential part of what makes Alsahwa possible.

What it means to work here

Every member of the Alsahwa team is an ambassador of our values; that slowing down, nourishing the mind and body, living well, and caring for the land are essential, and inseparable. You’re not just filling a role. You’re helping people reconnect.

What we offer

  • Ongoing training and development, with a genuine investment in your growth
  • Competitive pay
  • Staff meals – fresh, seasonal, made with the same care we put into the guest experience
  • A supportive, values-led culture
  • The chance to work in one of the most beautiful rural settings on the Sunshine Coast

We are committed to conscious living, purposeful work, continuous learning, and excellence through intentional care. We would love for you to join us.
