MyChef KC is looking for talented chefs ready for the ultimate opportunity.

Being a personal chef is more than just knowing how to cook great food. It’s a chance to expand beyond the kitchen and truly make a difference in people’s lives. We’re offering an awesome opportunity to flex your culinary muscle, connect with those you’re cooking for, and live a better quality of life.

What we’re looking for:

This is a contractor position. It starts off as part time hours, with the opportunity to take on more clients and work full time. You must be able to work independently as there will not be a boss hanging over your head. Punctuality and responsibility are a must.

Outstanding people skills

• Excellent communicators & organized
• Highly experienced & talented in the kitchen, with various culinary techniques, and multitasking
• Knowledgeable when working with various diets (paleo, whole30, vegan, keto, vegetarian, etc.), allergies & other dietary restrictions
• Positive, honest, accommodating & flexible

Position Highlights:

Schedule - generally speaking you’ll be working daytime hours, Monday-Friday, as the majority of our business involves weekly meal prepping for clients. Some evening/weekend work may be required for planning purposes or special events. Most major holidays off.

In-dependency - you will be responsible to set your own working hours with each client, create your own menus (we do not have recipe ownership), and work with each client on a weekly basis without supervision.

Cooking - You’ll have plenty of opportunity to cook whatever you want and to plan your own menus. It’s an excellent chance to sharpen your own skill set when it comes to techniques, cuisine knowledge, and overall cooking. You must be passionate about food!

Pay - $25-$30/hr for meal prep, $50/hr for evening/weekend work (parties, private dinners, etc..); cash bonus at 6 months and 1 year. PTO offered at 6 months

Requirements:

• High school diploma/GED
• At least 2 years experience working in a professional kitchen
• Weekday availability
• Reliable transportation & a working smartphone or laptop (you will have clients all across the KC metro)
