Private Chef

Dm Estate Staffing

Private Family Chef

A private family in the Peninsula area is seeking an experienced, full-time Private Chef to join their team. The ideal candidate is passionate about healthy, nourishing cooking and enjoys becoming part of a household over time, with a strong emphasis on Ayurvedic-inspired cuisine that's light, fresh, and flavorful rather than heavy or restaurant-style. The schedule is Monday through Friday, approximately 10:00am-6:00pm, with some flexibility as needed to work later evenings and weekends when occasionally requested.

Primary Responsibilities

  • Weekly menu planning
  • Grocery shopping and ingredient sourcing
  • Daily lunch and dinner preparation
  • Healthy snacks and kids' meals
  • Kitchen organization and inventory management
  • Cooking for occasional dinner parties and guests
  • Meal prep for the weekends

Ideal Qualifications

  • A minimum of 5+ years of Private Chef experience
  • Local to the Bay Area, CA
  • Specialization in Indian cuisine is very important!
  • Strong experience with health-focused, plant-forward cooking
  • Knowledge of Ayurvedic principles and seasonal eating strongly preferred
  • Comfortable with alternative grains, legumes, and mostly gluten-free cooking
  • Experience cooking for children and adapting meals for younger palates
  • Interest in seasonal, organic, and locally sourced ingredients
  • Comfortable creating variety across other cuisines
  • Legally authorized to work in the US
  • Has excellent employment references and willing to undergo a background check
