An exceptional opportunity has arisen for a highly-skilled Private Chef to join a warm VIP family in Holland Park, London

Culinary influences from all around the world (and a particular emphasis on Italian and Asian cuisines) would be appreciated by the Clients (who are themselves very passionate about food), and strong knowledge of seasonality, food provenance, and regional culinary differences is sought
Beyond technical skill, the family values a gentle, intelligent, and engaging personality — someone who enjoys discussing food, ingredients, and provenance, and can seamlessly adapt between casual family meals and elegant entertaining
The ideal candidate will have a fine dining background and at least five years’ experience working in private households
