Job description

Are you a chef who wants to escape the toxic kitchen workplace and work directly with private clients?

Join the movement to fight against processed junk-food giants in favor of powerful organic, home-cooked meals - the fuel that made humans into the most successful species on our planet.

Become a Biochef at Biospan, where you'll create powerful, bespoke meals for private clients - working directly in their homes. Dive into a world of performance cooking and nutrition, handpicking the finest organic ingredients. You'll team up with nutrition experts, learn the art of nutritious meal prep, and directly see the life-changing effects your cooking has on clients. It's more than a job; you'll be changing people's lives every day.

At Biospan, you'll get hands-on training from our nutritional experts and head chef. Learn to craft custom nutrition-packed menus, select the finest organic produce, and cook meals that are as nutritious as they are flavorful. It's a masterclass in elevating your cooking skills.

If you value nutrition, fitness, and natural living, we want you to apply. (The ideal candidate is trustworthy, organized, and always willing to go the extra mile.)

About the Role

This is a great opportunity for a live-out chef to work within a private household in the Cotswolds. The household is family-oriented, but your main responsibility will be cooking for the principals.

The principals are health-conscious and follow a strict high-performance nutritional plan. They require someone who can collaborate with a nutritionist and strength and conditioning team to create meals within a calorie/macro plan that are also varied and delicious.

The family occasionally entertains at home, so the chef should also be comfortable with dinner parties and cooking for guests. Discretion and trustworthiness are essential.

The candidate must be willing to travel, as the family may live in other locations (both in the UK and overseas) for short work projects.

This role is a permanent full-time position, 5 days a week, cooking breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with some flexibility to accommodate the family's needs.

Start: ASAP

Salary: Dependent on experience – negotiable (circa 65K+)

• Able to work as part of a high-performance team of specialists
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills
• Flexibility to travel with the family if required
• This full-time role involves working 5 days a week with some weekend flexibility
• Candidates must be comfortable with dogs
• Candidates should hold a full driving license and have their own vehicle
