Jobs for Cooks

Salary: circa £50,000
Location: Central London
Hours: Monday to Friday, 10:30 AM to 7:30 PM
Position: Live-out, non-smoker
Start date: May 2025
Statutory holiday
Family of eight in WC1 seeks chef to prepare delicious meals. Because the flat is open-plan and the mother will be breast-feeding, we require a female chef.
Duties include:
--Menu-planning and grocery-shopping at a nearby Waitrose
--Preparation of fresh lunches for the mother and children at home (and packed lunches for the children at school), dinner and dessert. Plus, breakfast for the next day. Extra food is made on Fridays for the weekend.
--Organization and cleaning of the kitchen and dining table area
Baking is a key aspect of this job. You must be comfortable working with metric and imperial weights, as well as the American cup system.
We admire chefs like Ravneet Gill, Nicola Lamb, and David Lebovitz, who are meticulous in their attention to detail.
If you’re the type of person who nerds out on the protein content of flours, who enjoys sourcing exotic spices like mahlab or making your own marzipan; if you’re a fanatic about separating cutting boards so that a strawberry tart doesn’t accidentally taste like garlic, and you can keep your sourdough starter bubbling happily away, no matter how busy life gets, this job may be for you.
The other crucial aspect of the job is creative menu-planning. We prefer to try new dishes rather than sticking to a rota (though of course we have our tried-and-tested favorites).
We like a wide variety of cuisines, including: French, Italian, Japanese, Israeli, and Scandinavian. We organize the menus around flavor profiles. For example, if we serve Ottolenghi’s felafel recipe with hummus, salad, and pitas for dinner, we might choose halva brownies or chocolate-pistachio cookies for dessert to keep the Middle Eastern vibe. Or with Swedish meatballs, we’d order lingonberry sauce to accompany the peas and mashed potatoes, and bake Honningkage. We like to eat seasonally, where possible, and get excited when Seville oranges hit the shelves in January, envisioning St. Clement’s marmalade in our future.
To succeed at this job, you need a combination of enthusiasm and stamina. Enthusiasm for learning new dishes and techniques. Stamina for carrying groceries and being on your feet much of the day. We’re also looking for stability, a person who wants a steady long-term job rather than a few months, and who’s not stressed by lively children with their paper airplanes and Legos, but is able to work around the children’s school calendar. Flexibility is crucial since the family leads a busy lifestyle, and the chef needs to adapt to last-minute changes.

6th to 15th April 2025 - Chef needed to work in a beautiful place on the Cornish coast, cooking for a community of international classical musicians.
The musicians come from all over the world to attend Masterclasses given by world renowned artists and play Chamber Music together. The course runs twice a year, in the spring over Easter and in September. It takes place on a private estate, right on the Cornish coast path with a private beach below the main house. There are 90-100 people in residence all staying in cottages with views of the sea on the private estate. All classes and rehearsal sessions are open to anyone working for the seminars to listen to, and there are fantastic public concerts each week in local churches which can be enjoyed by all as well.
The kitchen is run by 2 professional cooks who are responsible for providing food for the whole community each day. All meals are taken together in one large refectory in the main house. The cooks are helped by a team of volunteers, many of whom come regularly every year to enjoy the unique atmosphere of the seminar– a combination of some of the world's best classical music in one of the UK's most beautiful places and a chance to meet people from all over the world and from all walks of life. The cooks need to bear in mind that their sous chefs are all volunteers - some with more kitchen experience than others - so it is the cooks' responsibility to assess the strengths of the team on any shift quickly and delegate accordingly. The breakfast and afternoon tea shifts are organised by the volunteers so that the cooks can concentrate on the main meals, but it is the cooks' responsibility to see that the volunteers know what needs doing, and that food is ordered - and that fresh cakes/scones are made every morning for afternoon tea! There is a strict budget and which the cooks must work within.
The food should be wholesome and homey but with whatever twist the cooks feels they can bring to the table. Lunch is always vegetarian (usually soup plus salad/quiche etc), and supper is a main course plus dessert. Dietary requirements need to be considered (eg gluten free, vegan, allergies). The atmosphere is relaxed, usually dishes placed on each table for people to help themselves (eg a lasagne plus salad placed on the table to serve 8-10).
Many suppliers deliver (fresh local veg, bakery, dairy, fish, butcher) and food can be picked up by the seminar drivers from the local suppliers in Penzance (10 miles away) or from our bulk supplier, Bookers, in Hayle. There is not a lot of room in the kitchen to store more fresh produce than is needed over a 2-3 day period. If the cooks need supplies from Penzance, they need to prepare the shopping list in the evening for the next morning, and the cooks need to make sure orders are placed with suppliers in good time for deliveries.

Salary: circa £50,000
Location: Central London
Hours: Monday to Friday, 10:30 AM to 7:30 PM
Position: Live-out, non-smoker
Start date: May 2025
Statutory holiday
Family of eight in WC1 seeks chef to prepare delicious meals. Because the flat is open-plan and the mother will be breast-feeding, we require a female chef.
Duties include:
--Menu-planning and grocery-shopping at a nearby Waitrose
--Preparation of fresh lunches for the mother and children at home (and packed lunches for the children at school), dinner and dessert. Plus, breakfast for the next day. Extra food is made on Fridays for the weekend.
--Organization and cleaning of the kitchen and dining table area
Baking is a key aspect of this job. You must be comfortable working with metric and imperial weights, as well as the American cup system.
We admire chefs like Ravneet Gill, Nicola Lamb, and David Lebovitz, who are meticulous in their attention to detail.
If you’re the type of person who nerds out on the protein content of flours, who enjoys sourcing exotic spices like mahlab or making your own marzipan; if you’re a fanatic about separating cutting boards so that a strawberry tart doesn’t accidentally taste like garlic, and you can keep your sourdough starter bubbling happily away, no matter how busy life gets, this job may be for you.
The other crucial aspect of the job is creative menu-planning. We prefer to try new dishes rather than sticking to a rota (though of course we have our tried-and-tested favorites).
We like a wide variety of cuisines, including: French, Italian, Japanese, Israeli, and Scandinavian. We organize the menus around flavor profiles. For example, if we serve Ottolenghi’s felafel recipe with hummus, salad, and pitas for dinner, we might choose halva brownies or chocolate-pistachio cookies for dessert to keep the Middle Eastern vibe. Or with Swedish meatballs, we’d order lingonberry sauce to accompany the peas and mashed potatoes, and bake Honningkage. We like to eat seasonally, where possible, and get excited when Seville oranges hit the shelves in January, envisioning St. Clement’s marmalade in our future.
To succeed at this job, you need a combination of enthusiasm and stamina. Enthusiasm for learning new dishes and techniques. Stamina for carrying groceries and being on your feet much of the day. We’re also looking for stability, a person who wants a steady long-term job rather than a few months, and who’s not stressed by lively children with their paper airplanes and Legos, but is able to work around the children’s school calendar. Flexibility is crucial since the family leads a busy lifestyle, and the chef needs to adapt to last-minute changes.

6th to 15th April 2025 - Chef needed to work in a beautiful place on the Cornish coast, cooking for a community of international classical musicians.
The musicians come from all over the world to attend Masterclasses given by world renowned artists and play Chamber Music together. The course runs twice a year, in the spring over Easter and in September. It takes place on a private estate, right on the Cornish coast path with a private beach below the main house. There are 90-100 people in residence all staying in cottages with views of the sea on the private estate. All classes and rehearsal sessions are open to anyone working for the seminars to listen to, and there are fantastic public concerts each week in local churches which can be enjoyed by all as well.
The kitchen is run by 2 professional cooks who are responsible for providing food for the whole community each day. All meals are taken together in one large refectory in the main house. The cooks are helped by a team of volunteers, many of whom come regularly every year to enjoy the unique atmosphere of the seminar– a combination of some of the world's best classical music in one of the UK's most beautiful places and a chance to meet people from all over the world and from all walks of life. The cooks need to bear in mind that their sous chefs are all volunteers - some with more kitchen experience than others - so it is the cooks' responsibility to assess the strengths of the team on any shift quickly and delegate accordingly. The breakfast and afternoon tea shifts are organised by the volunteers so that the cooks can concentrate on the main meals, but it is the cooks' responsibility to see that the volunteers know what needs doing, and that food is ordered - and that fresh cakes/scones are made every morning for afternoon tea! There is a strict budget and which the cooks must work within.
The food should be wholesome and homey but with whatever twist the cooks feels they can bring to the table. Lunch is always vegetarian (usually soup plus salad/quiche etc), and supper is a main course plus dessert. Dietary requirements need to be considered (eg gluten free, vegan, allergies). The atmosphere is relaxed, usually dishes placed on each table for people to help themselves (eg a lasagne plus salad placed on the table to serve 8-10).
Many suppliers deliver (fresh local veg, bakery, dairy, fish, butcher) and food can be picked up by the seminar drivers from the local suppliers in Penzance (10 miles away) or from our bulk supplier, Bookers, in Hayle. There is not a lot of room in the kitchen to store more fresh produce than is needed over a 2-3 day period. If the cooks need supplies from Penzance, they need to prepare the shopping list in the evening for the next morning, and the cooks need to make sure orders are placed with suppliers in good time for deliveries.

Salary: circa £50,000
Location: Central London
Hours: Monday to Friday, 10:30 AM to 7:30 PM
Position: Live-out, non-smoker
Start date: May 2025
Statutory holiday
Family of eight in WC1 seeks chef to prepare delicious meals. Because the flat is open-plan and the mother will be breast-feeding, we require a female chef.
Duties include:
--Menu-planning and grocery-shopping at a nearby Waitrose
--Preparation of fresh lunches for the mother and children at home (and packed lunches for the children at school), dinner and dessert. Plus, breakfast for the next day. Extra food is made on Fridays for the weekend.
--Organization and cleaning of the kitchen and dining table area
Baking is a key aspect of this job. You must be comfortable working with metric and imperial weights, as well as the American cup system.
We admire chefs like Ravneet Gill, Nicola Lamb, and David Lebovitz, who are meticulous in their attention to detail.
If you’re the type of person who nerds out on the protein content of flours, who enjoys sourcing exotic spices like mahlab or making your own marzipan; if you’re a fanatic about separating cutting boards so that a strawberry tart doesn’t accidentally taste like garlic, and you can keep your sourdough starter bubbling happily away, no matter how busy life gets, this job may be for you.
The other crucial aspect of the job is creative menu-planning. We prefer to try new dishes rather than sticking to a rota (though of course we have our tried-and-tested favorites).
We like a wide variety of cuisines, including: French, Italian, Japanese, Israeli, and Scandinavian. We organize the menus around flavor profiles. For example, if we serve Ottolenghi’s felafel recipe with hummus, salad, and pitas for dinner, we might choose halva brownies or chocolate-pistachio cookies for dessert to keep the Middle Eastern vibe. Or with Swedish meatballs, we’d order lingonberry sauce to accompany the peas and mashed potatoes, and bake Honningkage. We like to eat seasonally, where possible, and get excited when Seville oranges hit the shelves in January, envisioning St. Clement’s marmalade in our future.
To succeed at this job, you need a combination of enthusiasm and stamina. Enthusiasm for learning new dishes and techniques. Stamina for carrying groceries and being on your feet much of the day. We’re also looking for stability, a person who wants a steady long-term job rather than a few months, and who’s not stressed by lively children with their paper airplanes and Legos, but is able to work around the children’s school calendar. Flexibility is crucial since the family leads a busy lifestyle, and the chef needs to adapt to last-minute changes.

For example, if we serve Ottolenghi’s felafel recipe with hummus, salad, and pitas for dinner, we might choose halva brownies or chocolate-pistachio cookies for dessert to keep the Middle Eastern vibe. Or with Swedish meatballs, we’d order lingonberry sauce to accompany the peas and mashed potatoes, and bake Honningkage. We like to eat seasonally, where possible, and get excited when Seville oranges hit the shelves in January, envisioning St. Clement’s marmalade in our future.
To succeed at this job, you need a combination of enthusiasm and stamina. Enthusiasm for learning new dishes and techniques. Stamina for carrying groceries and being on your feet much of the day. We’re also looking for stability, a person who wants a steady long-term job rather than a few months, and who’s not stressed by lively children with their paper airplanes and Legos, but is able to work around the children’s school calendar. Flexibility is crucial since the family leads a busy lifestyle, and the chef needs to adapt to last-minute changes.
