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 role? This full-time personal chef position is designed for those who value consistency, offering a Monday through Friday schedule from 8 am to 6 pm, ensuring your evenings and weekends remain free.
In this role, you will serve as a personal chef for 8-9 clients weekly, managing the entire culinary experience from grocery shopping and meal planning to cooking and kitchen cleanup. This position provides a unique platform to showcase your creativity across a variety of cuisines while building meaningful, long-term relationships with clients who deeply appreciate your expertise. Beyond standard meal preparation, you will have the opportunity to host intimate private dining events, teach cooking classes, lead corporate team-building workshops, and support special projects like menu design and event catering.
What sets this role apart from traditional restaurant kitchens is the freedom to interact directly with clients and the creative license to design menus without the pressure of high-volume service. Unlike restaurant environments, this position eliminates regular late nights and weekends, allowing you to focus on culinary artistry and professional development. We invest heavily in our chefs through hands-on training, mentorship, and structured career development programs. If you are someone who enjoys taking initiative and driving growth, this role offers virtually unlimited potential to evolve from a personal chef into an event chef or culinary leader.
Our company culture is built on rewarding hard work, creativity, and dedication. We believe in recognizing exceptional performance and providing a clear pathway for financial advancement, including opportunities for raises contingent upon favorable performance evaluations. We value innovation and strive to create an environment where your contributions are celebrated.
The interview process is designed to assess both your fit and your culinary skills. It begins with a 15-minute fit call, followed by a video interview. Candidates will then complete a bench test where they cook a meal (with reimbursement provided), and finally, a full-day paid stage to demonstrate their capabilities in a real-world setting.
A cover letter is highly encouraged when applying. Please note that all applicants offered a position will be subject to a background check, and we utilize E-Verify to confirm employment eligibility. Travel may be required during the training phase, which is fully compensated by the company.
