Job Description

A distinguished household in Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey is looking for a talented and health-focused Live-Out Private Chef who specializes in elevated vegetarian cuisine. The ideal candidate brings a strong foundation in fine-dining or Michelin-level kitchens, a passion for clean, organic cooking, and the ability to craft refined, globally inspired meals with outstanding consistency and creativity.

The chef will prepare daily meals for the principals, maintain impeccable kitchen standards, and support a household that prioritizes wellness, quality ingredients, and exceptional culinary technique.

Meal Prep & Stocking: Prepare a selection of ready-to-eat and reheatable dishes for the refrigerator. Handle prep work including bread baking, spice grinding, and the production of sauces, stocks, and bases.
Team Communication: Coordinate with the household staff to align meal times, dietary preferences, and scheduling needs.
Shopping Support: While the household manages grocery purchasing, the chef will provide detailed shopping lists and menu-related guidance.
