  • Assist with menu preparation, cooking, plating, and service, ensuring consistent quality and presentation standards
  • Maintain the kitchen’s cleanliness and ensure food safety and hygiene practices meet the highest standards
  • Support with kitchen set-up, inventory and stock control, as well as general operational tasks

  • Demonstrate a willingness to learn, take feedback, and further develop fine dining techniques under the Main Chef’s mentorship
  • Prepare simple, nutritious meals for the household staff team

Requirements:

  • Early-career chef with strong foundations in fine dining; experience in Michelin-star restaurants, luxury yachts, or private households is highly desirable
  • Hard-working, proactive, and able to operate efficiently with guidance and direction
  • Excellent interpersonal skills: communicative, adaptable, flexible, and solution-oriented
  • Professional, reliable, discreet, and comfortable working within a private UHNW household
  • A culinary portfolio or examples of previous work are a plus but not essential
  • Willingness to travel occasionally with the family.
