About Vendador @vendadorchicago

Vendador is a Chicago-based luxury private dining company founded in 2021. We bring Michelin-trained culinary work into our clients’ homes and private spaces, with a hospitality philosophy rooted in devotion to craft rather than service. We work with high-net-worth clients across the city and have grown entirely through word of mouth and the strength of the brand.

Our audience includes 80k+ followers on Instagram, 30K+ on TikTok, and a growing presence on LinkedIn and YouTube.

we sit at the unique intersection of fine dining, chef education, luxury lifestyle, and design.

The Role

We’re hiring a part-time Social Media Manager for 20 hours per week. This experienced person owns the day-to-day content operation across Instagram, TikTok, LinkedIn, and YouTube, writes one SEO-focused blog post per week for our website, and edits all event content from our shoots. The work is creative and operational in equal parts.

The ideal candidate has experience growing other brands (ideally in the culinary space), is incredibly organized, based in Chicago and able to come in for hybrid in-person work, but a strong remote candidate will be equally considered.

  • Direct experience strategizing content for at least one previous company or brand
  • Portfolio of work that demonstrates editing skill across both photo and video

Preferred Experience

  • Background in food, luxury, or hospitality brands
  • Experience working with founder-led or chef-led brands
  • Familiarity with high-net-worth audience and tone
  • SEO blog writing experience for website (supported by Claude AI)

Who You Are

  • A strong writer with a real point of view and a sharp ear for tone
  • Excited, driven, and self motivated to grow accounts that are already large, which comes with different hurdles than starting from the bottom
  • Comfortable with AI tools, specifically Claude, and able to train and refine an AI workflow to hold our brand voice
  • Organized to independently run a content calendar without being micromanaged
  • Genuinely interested in food, hospitality, and the world we work in
  • Able to take direct feedback and move fast. last minutes requests happen weekly, if not daily

  • Start date: June 15
