Job Description

Eat Cook Joy is an innovative personal chef company based in Austin, Texas, dedicated to revolutionizing the personal chef industry by making these services more accessible and affordable for a diverse clientele. As a growing organization, Eat Cook Joy focuses on providing both their clients and chefs with a unique and rewarding experience. The company champions a model that supports work-life balance, affordability, and culinary creativity, setting it apart from traditional commercial kitchen operations. They emphasize cooking in clients' homes within the local Austin Metro Area rather than commercial kitchens, thereby offering chefs a more flexible, personalized, and enjoyable working environment. \n\nThe role of Personal Chef at Eat Cook Joy is a part-time, contract position ideal for culinary professionals, students pursuing culinary education, or anyone passionate about cooking who desires an opportunity to gain valuable hands-on experience. With compensation starting at $30 per hour or more, this job offers above-average pay for culinary roles paired with the flexibility of scheduling that accommodates personal commitments. The position involves traveling to clients' homes to prepare meals based on personal and professional recipes, ensuring high-quality food preparation while adhering to stringent health and safety standards. This role emphasizes cooking at a more personal level, enabling chefs to connect with clients and make a positive impact in their daily lives. \n\nAs a Personal Chef, the candidate will enjoy working with a company that respects their culinary skills and creativity, encouraging them to both cook their own recipes and learn new techniques. The job extends beyond simple meal preparation; it involves managing the entire cooking session—from initial grocery pickup through to meal preparation and kitchen cleanup. The company provides support for chefs to build their clientele within the Austin community, promoting professional growth and allowing chefs to maintain a normal schedule that supports their lifestyle. \n\nThis is a fantastic opportunity for individuals who are passionate about cooking in non-commercial settings and wish to develop their careers while maintaining personal time and a balanced life. At Eat Cook Joy, the role is designed to empower chefs with autonomy over their sessions, encourage continuous learning, and foster meaningful relationships with their clients. Working in various homes around Austin also offers diversity in the work environment and clients, which enriches the experience and sharpens skills.
