Job Description:
Full job descriptionWe are delighted to be recruiting on behalf of a highly regarded private principal for a talented chef to join their close-knit, London-based team. This is a genuinely exciting opportunity for someone who is looking to join a top team of highly motivated, passionate chefs
The team is led by an experienced and hands-on Head Chef who cooks alongside his team, invests in developing them, and runs a kitchen where the structure is flat and the standards are high. The food is warm and generous, family-style rather than plated fine dining, but the quality and care that goes into it is anything but casual.
What sets this role apart is the emphasis on culinary development. The principal actively sends chefs on trips around the world; San Sebastián, Thailand, Korea and beyond, to absorb new techniques and broaden their repertoire. You will be genuinely invested in, challenged, and given the tools to become a more rounded and capable chef.
The role is based in Central London with travel approximately 8-10 weeks of the year. There are always two chefs on duty at any time, and the team works on a two weeks on, one week off rotation. Hours vary depending on what is happening in the household: quiet family days look very different from entertaining, and both are part of the job.
This is a role for someone who can leave their ego at the door, adapt quickly, and embrace the particular rhythm of a private household. In return, you will be treated as an equal, cooked alongside every day, and given real opportunities to develop your craft in some of the most extraordinary kitchens in the world.
Requirements*Classically trained, with a background in restaurants before moving into private household roles
*Confident across a range of cuisines, Italian, Asian and Mexican and genuinely excited to keep learning
*Experienced catering for dietary requirements and larger numbers when needed
*Adaptable and self-aware: private household kitchens have their own rhythm and you understand that
*A strong team player who can also work independently during quieter periods
*Right to work in the UK; willing and able to travel internationally, sometimes at short notice
Location: London (Knightsbridge), with regular travel
Schedule: 2 weeks on / 1 week off rotation; two chefs always on duty
Accommodation: Live-out in London; provided when travelling
Salary: circa £100-120k gpa depending on experience
Start: Interviewing now
