    Head Chef

    Job Description

    A position has arisen for Head Chef in the private household of our client, who is an ultra-high net worth individual (UHNWI ) whose principal residence is in Doha, Qatar.

    We are seeking a Head Chef to manage this UHNWI European Kitchen, kitchen staff, and to oversee all kitchen operations. All European cuisines will be under the supervision of the Head Chef. Those chefs who enter this kitchen will find only the finest products. This produce can only sing when paired with your passion, energy, and devotion to perfection.

    While the Head Chef will work with an experienced kitchen team this is still very much a “hands on” role. Our client's strong preference is for a chef who loves to cook , so this is not an executive position.

    In addition to previous experience serving private clients, the ideal candidate should have a flair for preparing imaginative and healthy French cuisine . As well as private service experience, we are looking for a head chef who has polished their craft in European Michelin Star restaurants and five star hotels .

    This private household is fully staffed and the Head Chef will be reporting to the General Manager. There is an exceptional package for this position and we will be in a position to fully disclose it to those candidates in contention for this position.

    This is a recruiting assignment which our client expects us to conduct confidentially, with discretion. As a result, while we would love to share some information about the role, and its benefits, we are required to keep it under wraps until we are able to talk to interested parties.

    This is a very special, and rare, opportunity to work in one of the best private household positions to come to market recently. While we would prefer to communicate with everyone who expresses an interest in this position we can only guarantee replies to those candidates who fit our client's very specific requirements.

    In spite of that caveat, we urge you to give this serious consideration and apply without delay .

    • Yes
