Weekday hours, great benefits, incredible environment for degreed cooks - Full-time / Part-time

They say artists have to suffer for their art to be great. We disagree.

Friend That Cooks Personal Chef Service has a dual mission. We have a service that improves the quality of life for both our clients AND our chefs. We don't believe you should have to sacrifice your evenings and weekends to make a career out of cooking. We don't believe in 6-7 day work weeks and 12-16 hour shifts. We don't believe great cooks should spend their career forced to prepare other chef's recipes, use sub-par ingredients or work in high pressure environments that prevent you from leaving your work at the workplace.

If you have a culinary degree (not a certificate), own a reliable vehicle, have a smart phone and know how to use it, are great with people, and have a huge repertoire of ethnically diverse dishes you can make from scratch without recipes, WE WANT TO TALK TO YOU.

Our personal chefs work mainly weekday hours from 8'ish to 5'ish. Evening and weekend opportunities occasionally arise, are optional, and pay automatic overtime. Our chefs start part-time, then work toward full time and have a lot of control over their schedules. They get creative freedom with their food (within the tastes of their clients). The have the best work environment in the food service industry.
