Personal Chef

About the Role

Are you a culinary professional seeking a career path that offers superior work-life balance and growth opportunities beyond the typical constraints of a sous chef or line cook position? This full-time personal chef role is designed for those who want to leverage their expertise in a dynamic environment while reclaiming their evenings and weekends. You will serve 8-9 clients weekly, managing the entire culinary experience from grocery shopping and meal planning to cooking and kitchen cleanup.

Beyond standard meal preparation, this position invites you to showcase your creativity across a variety of cuisines. You will build meaningful relationships with clients who value your culinary artistry. The role extends into diverse areas such as hosting intimate private dining events, teaching cooking classes, leading corporate team-building workshops, and supporting special projects like menu design and event catering.

Why This Role is Different

Unlike traditional restaurant environments, this position offers consistent, predictable Monday through Friday hours, eliminating the need for regular late nights or weekend shifts. You will enjoy direct client interaction and the freedom to curate creative menus. Furthermore, the role provides a unique pathway to grow beyond the kitchen, evolving into opportunities in events, education, and culinary leadership.
