Full Job Description

Important: Please read before applying
Applying on Indeed is only the first step. We don’t review Indeed applications, as they don’t give us enough detail to evaluate fit.

To be considered, you must complete our official application here:

(copy and paste the link in your browser)

About Us

We’re Elevated Lifestyle—a team that cares deeply about the quality, consistency, and experience we bring into our clients’ homes each week.

We are not a staffing agency, and this is not gig-by-gig freelance work. Our chefs operate as independent service professionals who partner with Elevated Lifestyle to deliver consistent, high-touch service to our client base.

What You Need to Know Up Front

This is independent contractor (1099) work
Services are booked per session at a flat rate (not hourly)
There are no guaranteed hours—client volume grows gradually as availability and fit align
Most chefs begin with 1–2 clients per week and build toward 4–10+ clients over time
You maintain autonomy in how you execute services, while Elevated manages client onboarding, pricing, scheduling frameworks, and service scope

Service area:
You must be consistently available within the following locations:
Philadelphia, Bala Cynwyd, Merion Station, Narberth, Penn Valley, Penn Wynne, Wynnewood, Ardmore, Bryn Mawr, Haverford, Villanova, Gladwyne, and Havertown.
Reaching West Chester, Lansdale, Doylestown, Chester Springs, Media and other locales will increase your book further.

Schedule parameters:

Weekday daytime services only (rarely do clients request weekends)
No evenings

Compensation

Flat per-session pay (not hourly)
Most chefs average $30–$40/hour equivalent, depending on experience and efficiency
Fully booked chefs typically earn $5,000/month, while maintaining flexibility and control over their workload

You are responsible for managing your time efficiently within each session.

Scope of Services
As a Professional Chef Contractor, you will:

Prepare a set number of customized meals in clients’ homes
Grocery shop for scheduled meals using a client-provided payment method
Upload menus, reheating instructions, and photos to our app
Thorughly clean the kitchen after seach session
Communicate through our app to ensure continuity and clarity

All services are performed within the scope outlined by Elevated Lifestyle for each client engagement.

About the Work
This is not generic meal prep.
Meals are prepared in multiple portions for the week, but each dish is fully customized and cooked specifically for the household.

This is hands-on, in-home cooking for families who value quality — and notice when it’s missing.

This is not a low-effort or drop-in cooking role. You are responsible for delivering a full, consistent service each week—clients rely on you, and the expectation is that you follow through.

Who This Is a Good Fit For

Professional chefs who take reliability seriously and understand that families are counting on them week to week
People who show up when they say they will, communicate early if something changes, and don’t leave clients guessing
Chefs who value consistency and follow-through as much as creativity
Chefs who take real pride in their work and bring a high level of care and detail—whether from fine dining or similarly high-standard kitchens
Professionals who understand that this is not occasional or casual cooking — it’s a recurring service built on trust
Chefs who enjoy building steady, long-term client relationships through presence, care, and dependability

Requirements

3+ years of professional cooking experience
Reliable vehicle and ability to travel within the service area (up to ~45 minutes)
Ability to transport groceries and tools (up to ~50 lbs)
Comfort using an app for communication and documentation
Strong attention to detail and personal accountability
