Private Chef for Meal Prep in San Francisco Bay Area (Part-Time, 2 Days/Week)
Biospan
Executive chef job in San Francisco, CA
We're hiring a private chef to cook in a client's home. You'll plan nutrition-led menus with our team, 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.
This household follows a modern ancestral framework with a strong focus on gut diversity, metabolic health, and mitochondrial support - including gluten-free menus, clean proteins, resistant starch prep, ferments, and non-toxic cooking methods.
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
Plan and cook meals tailored to the household, guided by Biospan nutrition menus
Prepare around 4 dinners per week plus lunches for two people
Manage shopping and inventory with a focus on organic, pasture-raised, wild and low-tox ingredients
Portion and label meals in glass containers for easy reheating
Use filtered water and non-toxic cooking methods as requested
Keep the kitchen clean and organised
Adapt to preferences, accommodate intolerances (including gluten-free), and update a simple log each cook day
Communicate clearly with the client and Biospan so expectations stay aligned
Schedule and location
You'll work 2 days per week, roughly 14-16 hours in total across those cook days.
The role is fully in-person at the client's home in the San Francisco Bay Area.
Pay and expenses
Pay is competitive and based on experience. We reimburse groceries and reasonable kitchen consumables.
What you'll need
At least three years of professional kitchen experience (private-chef experience preferred)
Strong organisational skills, discretion, and punctuality
A spotless, methodical approach to kitchen hygiene
Active chef insurance, a clear background check, and a valid driving licence

Comfort working with detailed guidelines (macros, micronutrients, sourcing standards) while still cooking delicious, satisfying food
