Once in life opportunity Chef opportunity in the Bay Area
Posted : 09/25/25
A wonderful family of five in beautiful Woodside, CA is looking for a talented and passionate Private Chef to join their household. Their current chef, who has been with them for many years, is relocating — so this is an exciting opportunity to step into a cherished role and become part of their daily lives. This is a warm, welcoming family who truly values great food and the joy it brings. They’re looking for a Michelin-level chef who is equally comfortable creating elegant, seasonal meals as they are preparing simple, family-style dinners. The children eat at 5:30 PM and the parents at 6:00 PM, so thoughtful menu planning and timing are key. When they entertain, a server will be brought in so you can focus on the food. The schedule is Sunday–Thursday, 11:00 AM – 7:00 PM, with Fridays and Saturdays off (some flexibility appreciated with advance notice). Kitchen cleaning is expected, but a housekeeper handles deep cleaning each morning. The family would also love their chef to travel with them a few weeks each year to homes in Hawaii and Lake Tahoe. You must be Creative, passionate, and experienced in high-end, seasonal cuisine. Warm, approachable, and happy to cook family meals as well as special-occasion dinners. Highly organized, with strong communication and planning skills. Excited to build a long-term, trusted relationship with the family. Exceptional salary, full benefits, 401(k), paid time off, and the chance to do what you love in a home that truly appreciates it. If you’re ready to bring your culinary talent into a home where you’ll be valued and treated like family, we’d love to hear from you.
