A Private Chef for Your Lifestyle
PCI’s chefs excel in everything from soup to dessert and have a talent for finding the best ingredients and appliances, an eye for tabletop arrangements, and a knack for kitchen management. Our chefs are particularly adept at accommodating your daily schedule and your travel itinerary.
PCI places two types of chefs: live-in and live-out. The former receive living quarters (often the equivalent of a small apartment), board and sometimes the use of a car.
Private Chefs, Inc. was established because we believe there is a real need for an agency that specializes solely on personal chef placements run by people who, themselves, have experience working in the hospitality industry and private homes.
A private chef needs to have a service-oriented mindset, be a team player, think on his/her feet, adjust quickly to ever-changing plans and last-minute requests, and adapt to the varying needs of our clients. What PCI chefs do extremely well is accommodate those needs.
At PCI, we believe that placing a chef in a residence, estate, or yacht is a service that needs specific attention by specialists who have a unique grasp of what is needed to satisfy the client’s and chef’s needs to make a perfect long-term match.
After you had a chance to review the resumes we will assist with setting up interviews & test cookings for the chefs you selected.
We are also available during the whole hiring process to answer any questions you might have about the individual chefs, salary norms, benefits etc. etc.
All long-term placements come with a 90-day free replacement guarantee.
All limited engagements come with a free replacement guarantee for the duration of the engagement.
