Job Description

Tiger Private is delighted to support a distinguished HNW family in Milan in their search for a talented, Milan-based Private Chef.

This is a unique opportunity for a highly skilled and passionate chef to provide exceptional culinary services to a dynamic household. The successful candidate will have the flexibility to either prepare meals from their own fully equipped home kitchen with delivery to the family’s residence, or alternatively cook on-site at the family’s Milan home, depending on preference and suitability.

The role requires creativity, organisation, and the ability to deliver consistently outstanding meals for the principals, their small family, and occasional guests.

Please note: This is a live-out position. Candidates must be based in Milan and able to commute locally. Flexibility, discretion, and a genuine passion for culinary excellence are essential.

Responsibilities

Culinary Planning & Preparation

  • Design diverse, intercontinental menus tailored to the family’s tastes, preferences, and dietary requirements.

  • Focus on balanced nutrition, seasonality, variety, and refined presentation.

  • Source the finest local, organic, and specialty ingredients from trusted Milanese suppliers.

  • Prepare and package meals to an exceptional standard when working from your own kitchen, ensuring quality and freshness upon delivery.

  • Bake fresh, healthy goods for the principals’ children (e.g., nutritious snacks, breads, muffins, low-sugar treats), ensuring high-quality ingredients and child-friendly presentation.

Kitchen & Inventory Management

  • Maintain impeccable hygiene and organisation standards in either your own kitchen or the family’s residence.

  • Manage grocery shopping, pantry organisation, and rotation of fresh produce.

  • Monitor food budgets, track receipts, and manage expenses efficiently.

Household Support

  • Coordinate seamlessly with household staff to ensure smooth daily operations.

  • Oversee table settings and food presentation when required.

  • Provide occasional support for small gatherings or family events.

Requirements

  • Culinary degree or formal training preferred.

  • Proven experience as a Private or Personal Chef with verifiable references.

  • Strong knowledge of nutrition, dietary planning, and specialty diets (e.g., gluten-free, dairy-free, child-friendly menus).

  • Experience in baking wholesome, nutritious goods suitable for children.

  • Excellent planning, time management, and organisational skills.

  • Ability to work efficiently in a fast-paced, high-standard environment.

  • Flexible and available for occasional events or schedule adjustments.

  • Comfortable working in a family setting and confident supporting a child-focused culinary environment.
