Our Hotel

Set within the beautifully preserved 169-year-old sandstone façade that once housed Sydney’s Fairfax newspaper empire and the Bank of New South Wales, Paradox Sydney honours the rich heritage of its landmark building while embracing a contemporary expression of five-star hospitality. Perfectly positioned in the heart of the CBD, the hotel places guests moments from Sydney’s most celebrated dining, shopping and cultural precincts.

Reimagined in 2025 as Paradox Sydney, this iconic address marks a new chapter for the property. Blending historic character with modern design and warm, intuitive service, the hotel reflects the Paradox philosophy of cultured yet approachable hospitality, creating a vibrant guest experience shaped by the energy and spirit of Sydney itself.

The Role

Are you a strong Commis Pastry Chef ready to take the next step, or a junior Pastry Chef de Partie looking for greater responsibility, creative freedom and career progression?

We are seeking a capable and ambitious pastry professional to take ownership of the pastry function within our five-star luxury hotel. This is an ideal step-up opportunity for someone with solid pastry experience who is ready to work more independently, develop their creative voice and advance their career.

• Reporting directly to the Executive Chef, you will independently manage the day-to-day pastry operation, producing high-quality items across the hotel’s restaurants, in-room dining, banquets, afternoon teas and special events. Your creative input will be valued as you help shape seasonal menus and maintain consistent five-star standards.
