Private Chef (Live-In), Milan, Italy, Competitive salary plus separate accommodation

Our UHNW clients based just outside Milan are looking for a talented live-in chef to join their fully staffed household. This is a family-focused position, preparing healthy, fresh meals in a relaxed and informal environment.

You’ll prepare daily breakfast and dinner (breakfast around 6am and dinner is usually served at 7–7:30pm). Lunch isn’t a major focus during the week aside from preparing lunchboxes or light meal prep, though weekends may include a casual family lunch.

The family enjoys mainly Japanese and Mediterranean cuisine with an emphasis on nutritious, anti-inflammatory dishes, keto options, and delicious vegetarian meals. A strong understanding of nutrition is essential.

You’ll take care of menu planning, shopping, and maintaining a clean, well-organised kitchen. The family also hosts occasional dinner parties, so experience with preparing for and executing small events is a plus. Cooking is done from an open plan kitchen, so you should be comfortable in a client facing role.

The family occasionally travels to their properties in the UK and Dubai, and it would be ideal if you’re flexible to travel with them.

Lovely separate accommodation is provided.

Requirements:

• Discreet, professional, and respectful of family privacy

• Flexible for occasional late evenings (dinner parties)

• Willing to travel with the family when required

• Fluency in English; Italian a strong plus

• Valid EU work permit or Italian residency

Days: 5 days per week, including weekends (2 days off midweek)

Salary: Competitive salary offered, plus separate accommodation

Start: ASAP
