Private Chef FT with benefits/401k, Provision Table We are seeking a Private Chef to join our food group’s Concierge Dining Division, delivering personalized, high-quality in-home dining experiences for a select group of private clients.
This role blends restaurant-level systems with elevated in-home service, ideal for a chef who values efficiency, discretion, and consistent execution in a private setting.

Roughly 90% of the work is completed in the kitchen, with final execution done onsite.
We focus on real, whole-food cooking with clear nutrition intent. Meals are clean, thoughtful, and repeatable—built on high-quality ingredients, smart prep systems, and consistent execution.
You’ll receive direct client feedback, allowing you to refine menus and continuously elevate both food and service.
