Join the team

Palm Club is a new island-inspired cafe and bar coming to Williamstown. By day we serve quality coffee and vibrant Caribbean-influenced food. By night the venue comes alive with cocktails, music, events and warm hospitality. We are building a team with personality, care and a genuine willingness to contribute. Experience matters, but it is not the only thing we value. We want people who support one another, take pride in their work and help create a venue guests love returning to.
