High-End Private Chef (Live-Out, relaxed Schedule) for Family in Pahoia

High-End Private Chef (Live-Out, relaxed Schedule) for Family in Pahoia About Us Hello! We are a family of five (two adults and three kids, ages 11, 12, and 14) relocating from Germany to Pahoia (about 20 minutes north of Tauranga). We are incredibly excited about our new chapter in New Zealand and are looking for a talented, health-conscious private chef to manage our home’s culinary needs. The Schedule We are offering a great work-life balance: Days 5 days a week (Monday – Friday). Your weekends are entirely your own* Hours We eat dinner early (around 4:30 – 5:00 PM). This means your working day will be finished early in the evening! We also do not need breakfast prepared. * * unless we have a special event planned in advance The Role & Culinary Style We are looking for someone to take the reins when it comes to our meals. You will have creative freedom to source the best local New Zealand ingredients. For the Adults We are health-conscious and typically eat twice a day (a late breakfast/brunch and an early dinner). We prioritize healthy, high-protein, and low-carbohydrate meals. We need a chef who is comfortable keeping an eye on macros and calories to support our lifestyle. For the Kids To be honest, our kids don’t naturally love healthy food! We would love for you to take on the challenge of making healthy meals they actually want to eat, but we aren't strict about this – as long as they enjoy their food and it is not burgers and pizza all the time we are happy. About You Experienced & Skilled: You bring a premium culinary background from a lodge, yacht, private household, or other high-end hospitality setting. Kid-Friendly: Our kids are slightly older and generally easygoing. You don't need to be an entertainer, but a warm, approachable personality is a must! Autonomous: You know how to run a kitchen smoothly, manage grocery sourcing, and keep things professional yet relaxed. The Details Role Type: Live-out position based in Pahoia. Start Date: Ideally beginning of September 2026 Compensation: high-end compensation package commensurate with your experience. If you are a passionate chef looking for creative freedom and the opportunity to have your nights and weekends back, we would love to hear from you. #J-18808-Ljbffr
