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 culinary expertise.
Beyond standard meal preparation, this role offers diverse opportunities to expand your skill set. You will host intimate private dining events and dinner parties, teach cooking classes as a culinary instructor, and lead corporate team-building workshops. Additionally, you may support special projects such as menu design and event catering, allowing you to grow into a private chef, event chef, or culinary leader.
We invest heavily in our chefs through hands-on training, mentorship, and structured career development programs. If you are someone who enjoys taking initiative, building relationships, and driving growth, this role offers virtually unlimited potential. We value hard work, creativity, and dedication, rewarding exceptional performance with a clear pathway to financial advancement, including well-deserved raises at the one-year mark contingent upon favorable evaluations.
The compensation package is highly competitive, featuring a sign-on bonus of $1,000 after 90 days, bonus pay, and unlimited referral bonuses. After 90 days of employment, medical and dental benefits become available with the employer covering 65% of the cost. After one year, employees can enroll in a 401k plan with a 4% match program. Life and disability insurance are provided at no cost to the employee.
Our interview process is designed to assess both fit and culinary skill. It begins with a 15-minute fit call, followed by a video interview. Successful candidates will then complete a Bench Test, where they cook a meal (reimbursement provided), and conclude with a Full Day Stage (paid).
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 training, which is fully compensated by the company.
