Chef and hospitality staff desperately needed

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

Hey neighbours

Do you know about the Village Club? It’s awesome. It’s somewhere you can sit and enjoy a quiet drink or a rousing game. You can win raffles or members draws, and enjoy a good meal. Or at least you could if there was a chef.
It’s a fantastic place and it, like many in hospitality, needs some help.

Are you, or do you know of, a chef looking for a place to cook. Maybe a caterer looking for a kitchen.
Are you a senior culinary student with experience in catering for events, looking for a place to ply your trade and earn some money?

Are you a waiter in waiting or a bar tender looking for a hospo job in a lovely, friendly environment? Do you have your LCQ, or are willing to get it?

Call Raquel at the Village Club on 06 877 8722 or email your particulars to office@villageclub.co.nz

She’s a great boss. I know it. I used to work for her. And it’s a great place. I worked there too.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
