Location: Stevenson, MD
Compensation: $35–$50/hour, depending on experience

Position Overview

A household in Stevenson, Maryland is seeking an experienced Part-Time Chef/Cook to prepare fresh, simple, home-cooked dinners Monday through Friday this fall. The household consists of three adults and one child, and dinner is served at 6:30pm. The ideal candidate takes pride in straightforward, well-executed cooking — roast chicken, grilled steak, fish, simple pasta, soups, seasonal vegetables, rice and grains, and salads — and enjoys sourcing quality ingredients. This is a hands-on role that includes daily grocery shopping, cooking, and full kitchen cleanup, so reliability, cleanliness, and organization are essential. This is a fixed-term contract engagement running through late December, and the family is looking for someone warm, positive, and dependable for the duration.

Responsibilities

Plan and prepare simple, fresh, home-cooked dinners to be served at 6:30pm each weekday
Handle daily grocery shopping, sourcing from vendors with the freshest available ingredients
Complete full kitchen cleanup after dinner service: dishes, wiping counters and stovetop, running the dishwasher, taking out trash, and vacuuming the kitchen floor
Maintain the refrigerator, freezer, and cupboards in clean, organized condition — rotating older items, wiping shelves, and discarding expired products
Communicate proactively with the family regarding menus, preferences, and grocery needs

Requirements

Demonstrated experience cooking for a family, or in a comparable setting such as a church kitchen, school, senior community, or similar food service environment
Strong command of simple, fresh, from-scratch cooking across proteins, vegetables, grains, and salads
Exceptional reliability, punctuality, and consistency
High standards of cleanliness, kitchen hygiene, and organization
Comfortable managing grocery shopping independently and working within household guidelines
Positive, warm, professional demeanor
Must be able to provide 3–5 professional references

Upon submitting this form, you will be considered for any suitable positions, so there is no need to complete multiple applications.
