Our company is a well-established culinary service provider specializing in personalized and high-end cooking experiences for discerning clients. We operate in a dynamic environment where our chefs play a vital role in delivering exceptional culinary services, including meal preparation, private dining, and culinary education. Our approach combines traditional culinary skills with creative and innovative methods to meet the diverse palates of our clientele. We pride ourselves on offering a supportive and growth-oriented workplace that contrasts sharply with the demands of conventional restaurant kitchen roles. This full-time personal chef position is designed to offer a balanced work-life schedule that differs markedly from the hectic and often unpredictable hours typical in restaurant kitchens. Working Monday through Friday from 8 am to 6 pm, the role provides evenings and weekends free, a rare and highly valued schedule in the culinary profession. In this role, you will serve 8-9 clients weekly, managing all aspects of their culinary needs from grocery shopping and meal planning to cooking and kitchen cleanup. You will have the opportunity to demonstrate creativity and culinary expertise across a variety of cuisines, building personalized menus that cater to your clients' tastes and dietary requirements. Beyond weekly meal preparation, the role extends into several exciting areas that enhance career growth and job satisfaction. You will be hosting intimate private dining events and dinner parties, where your skills in presentation and hospitality come to the fore. Additionally, you will take on the role of culinary instructor by teaching cooking classes, leading corporate team-building workshops that foster teamwork through culinary activities, and supporting special projects such as menu design and event catering. These diverse responsibilities make the position an excellent choice for culinary professionals who seek more than repetitive kitchen tasks and aspire to develop leadership and educational skills. Our company invests heavily in the professional growth of our chefs through hands-on training, ongoing mentorship, and comprehensive career development programs. The compensation package is highly competitive, starting at $26 to $29 per hour, with additional bonuses and referral incentives. After 90 days, medical and dental benefits are provided with 65 percent employer contribution, and a 401k plan with a 4 percent match becomes available after one year. Life and disability insurance are also offered at no cost. Rewarding performance and dedication is integral to our culture, with opportunities for raises based on performance reviews, allowing you to advance into roles such as private chef, event chef, or culinary leader. We value initiative, relationship-building, creativity, and dedication. If you are a culinary professional seeking a role offering predictable hours, direct client interaction, creative freedom, and growth potential beyond traditional kitchen jobs, this personal chef position delivers these benefits and more. Join us and take the next step in your culinary career with exceptional work-life balance, ongoing development, and a supportive network dedicated to your success.
