Job description

Tennessee private chef jobs

Tiny Spoon Chef hires full-time, W-2 personal chefs to cook in client homes across Nashville, Franklin, and Brentwood. The schedule is Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., with evenings and weekends free. You keep the craft and the client relationships. We handle the business side, from matching and scheduling to billing and support.

You cook in real client homes across this Tennessee market, build relationships with the people you cook for, and work with kitchens that each have their own routines and preferences. Grocery shopping can be part of the job when a client asks; Tiny Spoon handles the scheduling, billing, and client matching behind the scenes.

Independent vs. Tiny Spoon for Tennessee chefs

Working independent gives you control, but it also gives you a second job: finding households, answering inquiries, planning routes, sending invoices, chasing payments, and finding coverage when you need time off. Tiny Spoon puts a team behind the business side, so a day off can actually mean a show at the Ryman or dinner out, not another afternoon catching up on invoices.

On your own

• No vacation coverage. Miss too much time and the income goes first, the client isn't far behind.
• One bad season and there's no floor underneath you
• Late payments you have to chase yourself
• You're the marketer, biller, and bookkeeper before you're the chef
• Health insurance out of pocket, at individual-market rates

With Tiny Spoon

• A market team that covers you when you're out, plus paid time off so it doesn't cost you income.
• Monday through Friday, 8am to 6pm, evenings and weekends free
• A steady paycheck and paid prep time, every week
• Billing, scheduling, and client care handled for you
• Clients found, vetted, and matched to your style
• W-2 status with benefits for full-time chefs

Benefits without the burnout. Consistent schedules without the craziness. Relationships without the restaurant drama.
