We are actively looking to recruit a live-in TOP Private Chef to work for a lovely french family residing in Weybridge, Surrey.
• This is a full-time position: 5 day week working Monday to Friday starting at 6.00am and finishing after dinner service. The chef from france comes over and covers the weekends.
• This is a fully staffed household consisting of House Manager, PA and 5 Housekeepers. It is, therefore, essential that you are used to working as part of a large team.
• Our clients' preference is towards Italian and French cuisine so previous experience of this is also essential.
• The Principals have 3 children aged 17, 13 and 9 all living at the property.
• Our clients generally do not entertain very often and have guests only a handful of times per year.
• The family do travel a lot and normally you will not be expected to travel. However, on rare occasions you may be required to cover the other chef based in france. Should you travel to france this would generally be for no more than 5 days.
• You may also be required on occasion to serve food at the table, so must be happy to do so.
• The previous chef was with the family for 2 years and the chef who works in france has been with the family for over 5 years, so our client is looking for a track record of longevity in permanent positions.
• A driver would be useful.
• Salary is negotiable in the region of £50-70k per year, depending on previous experience.
• Accommodation could be provided, however, this would mean the salary would be at the lower end of the range.
• Interviews and to start as soon as possible
• All CVs must be accompanied by a cover letter, sample menu’s and 2 Referees who I can contact directly.
