Full Job Description

Location: Boston, MA & Maine

Start: Flexible

Children: Two-year girl & a baby due in August

Compensation: $110,000+ annually + Excellent Benefits Package + Relocation Assistance (if needed)

Schedule: Monday-Friday || Lunch & Dinner (full-time hours) || Flexibility to work weekends for entertainment and during travel

POSITION OVERVIEW
A warm, welcoming family is seeking an experienced Private Chef to become a long-term part of their household. This is an incredible opportunity for a chef who genuinely enjoys cooking fresh, healthy food, values building relationships, and thrives in a dynamic private home where no two days look exactly the same.The family's meals are intentionally simple, nourishing, and beautifully prepared rather than overly elaborate. The successful chef will create thoughtful daily menus centered around fresh ingredients, accommodate specialized dietary needs, and keep the kitchen running seamlessly while remaining flexible as family schedules naturally evolve.While culinary talent is essential, personality is equally important. The family hopes to find someone who is upbeat, adaptable, easy to be around, and enjoys becoming a trusted part of the household.

THE FAMILY & HOUSEHOLD

Household: Husband and wife, their two-year-old daughter, and a baby due this August.
Additional Team Members: A long-term nanny and housekeeper, who typically join the family for lunch each weekday.
Dining Preferences: The Mrs. follows a very specific low-histamine, macro-focused nutritional program. All meals are prepared fresh daily using carefully sourced, high-quality ingredients, and leftovers are never served due to dietary restrictions. The Mr. enjoys hearty, elevated comfort food with an emphasis on excellent steaks, Italian cuisine, and high-quality everyday cooking. Their daughter eats alongside her parents and is encouraged to enjoy the same fresh, wholesome family meals.
Residences: The family's primary home is in Boston, with a secondary residence in Maine where they spend time throughout the year. The chef will travel with the family between both homes.

SCHEDULE & TRAVEL

Schedule: Primarily Monday-Friday, with flexibility for occasional weekends when the family is entertaining or traveling.
Typical Daily Rhythm (while the husband is traveling): Lunch service around 12:00 PM || Dinner service around 5:30 PM
Family Schedule: When the family is together, the daily routine becomes more flexible, and dinner service may occasionally take place later in the evening.
Travel: The chef will travel with the family to their Maine residence throughout the year. Hotel accommodations will always be provided during travel.
Entertaining: The family entertains in a relaxed, welcoming style. Guests typically join for lunch a couple of times each month, with occasional larger gatherings and casual backyard-style barbecues.

LIVING ARRANGMENTS

Boston: Live-out position based at the family's primary residence in Boston.
Maine: The chef will stay in comfortable hotel accommodations while traveling with the family to their Maine residence.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Daily Culinary Operations

Prepare fresh daily lunch and dinner for the family
Prepare occasional family favorite baked goods and breakfast items
Ensure every meal is made fresh with no reliance on leftovers

Specialized Nutrition

Follow the Mrs.’s strict low-histamine dietary requirements
Prepare meals according to daily macro goals
Maintain consistency while offering variety and creativity
Adapt menus around seasonal ingredients and family preferences

IDEAL CANDIDATE

The family is looking for someone who brings just as much warmth and flexibility as culinary talent. The ideal chef understands that private service is about more than preparing exceptional meals—it's about becoming a trusted presence in the home, anticipating needs, and adapting effortlessly to the family's evolving schedule.Previous experience in a private household is strongly preferred, as this role requires someone who understands the unique rhythm of cooking for the same family each day. Candidates with both restaurant and private service experience are especially encouraged to apply, and those with experience aboard private yachts will likely transition exceptionally well due to the organization, adaptability, and high standards those environments demand.

The ideal candidate will possess:

6+ years previous private household chef experience
Culinary degree required
Strong organization and time management skills
Experience preparing fresh, health-conscious cuisine
Comfort following detailed dietary protocols and nutritional guidelines
Excellent steak cookery skills
A positive, easygoing, and service-oriented personality
Flexibility to adapt to changing schedules and family needs
Confidence working independently and taking ownership of the kitchen
Professional discretion and a genuine interest in a long-term position
Experience preparing Arabic cuisine is a wonderful bonus but is not required.
Reliable personal vehicle is required

COMPENSATION & BENEFITS

$110,000+ annual salary DOE
Fully covered health insurance
401(k)
20 days paid time off with flexible scheduling
Christmas and New Year's off
Relocation assistance available

WHY IS THIS ROLE SPECIAL?

This is a rare opportunity to join a kind, respectful family who truly values the people they welcome into their home.

You'll have the chance to prepare fresh, thoughtful meals using exceptional ingredients while building a long-term relationship with a family that appreciates professionalism, trust, and consistency. For the right chef, this is more than a job—it's a place to build a lasting career.

Pay: From $150,000.00 per year

Benefits:

401(k)
Health insurance
Paid time off
