We are working with a celebrity client in BH who needs a full-time Chef. The rough schedule is Monday through Friday from 10:00am to 8:00pm but there will be times you will be asked to come early, stay late &/or come in on a weekend. This job will also require travel from time to time. This is a job for a VERY FLEXIBLE Chef who is willing to roll with last minute changes. There’s a large staff in the home and it’s a super fun positive crew so you should be someone who likes to work in a bustling environment. There are two children in the house. You cook for the family (+ occasional friends & guests) and typically make extra for staff. Pay is $90k for a 50 hour work week. This is a position for an unflappable Chef who won’t mind not hearing from the client all day and then suddenly finding out she’s having guests for dinner and want four different options. Please reach out if interested!

Wonderful and very high profile family of five in Calabasas is looking to hire a second FT Chef. The focus is California Cuisine & Vegetarian. Candidates should be extremely detail oriented, flexible and willing to follow directions to a tee. There is a Head Chef who has been with the family for a very long time. The new hire will work under her for a few months and then the schedule will be split among the two Chefs with the new hire still reporting to the Executive Chef. Most likely, the position will be 3-4 days per week — sometimes it might be five days depending on the client’s schedule. Some travel may be required. This schedule is not set in stone and ALL applicants should be willing to be flexible as service is required BLD + snacks 7 days a week, including some holidays. The kitchen prepares food for up to app. 15 people a day — a mix of family, staff and guests. There are dogs and cats in the home so if you are a Chef with pet allergies — this is not the position for you. The ideal candidate is a fully flexible West Valley Chef with a mix of restaurant and private home experience. Pay is approximately $85K + health benefits. Please reach out if interested. Thank you!

Encino based family looking for a chef to do drop offs 2x a week. They are vegan with two children (who are vegetarian and picky but do eat meat and dairy). The husband requires an oil free diet. They are also gluten free.
They are looking for someone to make the following for each drop (2-3 days of meals a drop).
1. oatmeal or some sort of hot breakfast bowl, protein balls/ bars for snacks throughout the day or if they are on the go. Juices or smoothie.
2. Lunches for the husband and wife.
3. Dinners for the whole family.

They are looking for someone to make Vegan food not boring. It doesn’t have to be over the top it just needs to taste good, be healthy, have variety and cater to their likes. Ideally, the food for the following day would be something that is better the next day when it is heated up or served.

Looking for someone who is flexible with their lifestyle. They are gone over spring break, winter holidays and over the summers so someone who has multiple clients probably fits what they are looking for more than someone who wants full time.

Looking for someone to start as soon as possible!

DREAM HYBRID CHEF HOUSE MANAGER PART TIME POSITION — East Coast Executive is moving to Bel Air and is in the market for a Chef who will do some House Management. The ideal candidate is a service oriented foodie who went to culinary school and has a good deal of experience in a private home. She expects to need 2-3 days per week — sometimes you make food and leave it in the warmer and sometimes you cook & serve. She’d also like help with things like meeting repairmen and overseeing home maintenance. She’s moving from a rental in BH to a new home in Bel Air, so there will be some small construction projects and interior design work happening as well. In the home, there’s our client, her adult daughter and one small dog. She would LOVE to find someone willing to dog-sit when she travels so if you are a Chef who has done some house mgmt. and admin. work AND loves dogs — we want to hear from you! This job is mostly dinner + some dinner parties and cocktail parties. They love health food — typically low-calorie but tasty — mostly fish and salad and veggies and some red meat — farm to table yummy farmers market California food. Both Mom & Daughter travel a good deal so there are weeks when you’ll be needed less, but this kind client is willing to guarantee a minimum amount of hours (guessing around 10 per week). She pays fully on the books and is warm, kind and wonderful. She shared that her E. Coast Chef/House Mgr. became “like family” — we’re hoping to find her a new family member.
