Are you a culinary professional looking for more work-life balance and career growth than a typical sous chef or line cook position can offer? This full-time personal chef position is Monday through Friday, 8am-6pm, giving you evenings and weekends FREE.

In this role, you’ll work as a personal chef for 8-9 clients per week—handling weekly grocery shopping, meal planning, cooking, and kitchen clean-up.

• Direct client interaction and creative menu freedom
• Opportunities to grow beyond the kitchen into events, education, and leadership

Why Work With Us?

We invest in our chefs through hands-on training, mentorship, and career development programs. If you’re someone who enjoys taking initiative, building relationships, and driving growth, this role offers virtually unlimited potential.

At our company, we reward hard work, creativity, and dedication. You’ll be more than just a line cook or sous chef—you’ll have the opportunity to grow into a private chef, event chef, or culinary leader.

Pay: $26-30 per hour
