Full-time Private Chef in LA (6 months contract)
Montclair Chef
Chef job in Los Angeles, CA
Private Chef
Contract: Full-time, 6-month contract (potential to extend in Wyoming)
Salary: $165,000-$195,000/year USD (DOE)
Accommodation: Not provided (live-out in Los Angeles)
Start Date: ASAP
Guests: Family of 4 (2 adults, 2 young children)
Transport Requirement: Driver's license preferred
:
We are seeking a flexible, warm, and experienced Private Chef for a dynamic young family of four based in Los Angeles.
This full-time, six-month live-out position caters to two adults and two small children (ages 5 and 2). A potential long-term opportunity may follow in Jackson, Wyoming as a live-in role after the initial contract and once the family relocate.
The family lives in a gluten-free household due to a wheat allergy and requires a chef who is highly skilled in gluten-free cooking.
Their preferred cuisines include Asian, Italian, French, Mediterranean, and modern global styles. The successful candidate must have a deep understanding of healthy, flavourful food and excellent knowledge of ingredients and preparation techniques to meet both adult and child dietary needs.
You will be responsible for breakfast, light and healthy lunches, and more refined dinners served at 6 PM. Lunch may include items such as fresh salads, sushi, sandwiches, or light charcuterie, while dinner is expected to be more polished. The chef must be confident in creating attractive, nutritious meals for children and accommodating one adult's preference for lighter fare.
No staff meals are required.
The kitchen is professionally equipped, and the chef is expected to maintain a high level of organisation and cleanliness at all times. Candidates should possess strong hygiene habits and be capable of handling all kitchen-related duties independently, including menu planning, sourcing, and stock management. Personality is key for this role-the family seeks a chef who is professional yet personable, relaxed but focused, and a natural fit for a home with young children.
Although the client expresses a preference for female chefs due to family comfort, they are open to all genders.

Private Chef in Los Angeles | 20th November 2025
Biospan
Chef job in Los Angeles, CA
We're hiring a Part Time private chef. Each day is a Full day. You will work at the clients home. You'll plan nutrition-led menus, shop for quality ingredients, cook, batch where it makes sense, and leave the kitchen tidy. You'll coordinate with our nutrition team when needed, and you'll have direct feedback from the client so you can dial things in fast.
About Biospan. We place chefs into private households to deliver real, whole-food cooking with clear nutrition intent. Our clients include busy families, founders, and performance-minded professionals. We focus on simple, organic ingredients, smart prep systems, and consistent execution. When a client has a health goal or dietary protocol, we translate it into practical menus without fuss.
How we work. We keep menus seasonal and straightforward, and balance flavour with function. We're big on mise en place, safe batch prep, and efficient use of time. Chefs log dishes, portions, and any notes (preferences, allergies, wins, misses) so the next cook day is faster and better. When useful, you'll get light input from our nutritionists - macros, swaps, or protocol tweaks - but you still own the cooking.
What you'll do. You'll plan and cook meals tailored to the household, manage shopping and inventory, portion and label for the week, and keep the kitchen clean and organised. You'll adapt to preferences, accommodate allergies or intolerances, and update a simple log so we can measure what works. You'll communicate clearly with the client (and us) so expectations stay aligned.
Schedule and location. You'll work 5 days per week for roughly. Each day is a Full day. You will work at the clients home. The client's is based in Los Angeles.
Pay: USD 700 for a Full day. Groceries are reimbursed.
What you'll need. You have at least three years of professional kitchen experience; private-chef experience is preferred. You're organised, discreet, punctual, and you leave a spotless kitchen. A driving licence, active chef insurance, and a clear background check are required. An interest in nutrition and a calm, systematic approach to meal prep will help you succeed.
How to apply. Please complete our short form (1-2 minutes) with your experience, location, and availability. Enter your full address without extra notes so we can match you to roles in your area.
