Job description

VK Capital Ventures Inc. runs Travel Villa Kitchen — a Houston chef co-op, cooking-class and private-dinner company (plus Six Rows Coffee and Farm2Chef, our farmer-chef marketplace). Our owner-chef takes warm conversations only. We are hiring a Lead Call Specialist to make the first calls: working provided prospect lists, introducing our corporate holiday private-chef dinners and experiences, and setting qualified 15-minute meetings that our owner then takes. Lists, scripts, and talk tracks are provided — this is relationship-first outreach for a local hospitality brand, not high-pressure dialing.
