  • Location: Middle East. Specific country and city shared with shortlisted candidates under NDA.
  • Contract: Full-time, annual contract renewed every 12 months.
  • Accommodation: Fully furnished, private apartment provided.
  • Travel: Some international travel with the Principal and family, often at short notice and subject to change.
  • Confidentiality: Strictly confidential search. NDA required before further details are disclosed.
  • Compensation: Commensurate with senior performance-chef benchmarks for elite private households.

Overview

Oplu is leading the search for a Pro-Performance Chef to join a high-profile private household based in the Middle East. This is a newly created position, sitting within a well established, discreet household team, supporting the Principals' and family's training and nutrition at the highest level.

The Pro-Performance Chef will take full ownership of nutrition delivery across the year for all family members, translating macro and periodised nutrition plans into meals that are precise, high-quality, and consistently excellent, at home and on the road.

Whether your background is as a Performance Chef to a professional athlete, a Private Chef to an elite household, a Sports Nutrition Chef within a national squad or academy programme, or a Personal Chef with formal nutrition training, this is one of the most considered private culinary appointments in the region this year.

The Opportunity

This is not a private chef role with a nutrition badge on it. It is a performance-chef position, structured around the Principals' and family's advanced training schedules and accountable for translating their plans into daily execution on the plate.

The successful candidate will own the daily menu against agreed macronutrient targets, adapt across the full training cycle, and hold standards while travelling at the same level as at home.

The compensation, travel exposure, and profile of the household reflect the seniority of the position. Compensation detail and full terms are shared with shortlisted candidates under NDA.

Who this role suits

This role is best suited to an experienced Pro-Performance Chef, Private Performance Chef, or senior Private Chef with confirmed elite private or high-performance household exposure.

The right candidate is technically excellent in the kitchen, fluent in macro and periodised nutrition, calm when travelling or with changes to plans and schedules, and comfortable operating as part of a wider team rather than as a solo lead.

This is not a personality-driven front-of-house chef role. It is not suited to a private chef who has only done some nutrition on the side.

Key Responsibilities

Daily nutrition delivery

  • Design daily menus to meet macronutrient targets, including protein, carbohydrate, and fat, adjusted by training phases.
  • Adapt meal plans across the full training cycle.
  • Prepare recovery-focused meals supporting muscle repair, glycogen replenishment, inflammation reduction, and sleep quality.
  • Maintain accurate daily food and macronutrient records.

Travel

  • Travel internationally with the Principal and family, often at short notice.
  • Research local sourcing and suppliers in advance of each destination.

Sourcing and supplier management

  • Source high-quality proteins, complex carbohydrates, seasonal produce, and functional ingredients.
  • Build and manage specialist supplier relationships in the home market and in frequent travel destinations.
  • Apply cost discipline without compromising standards.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • Proven experience as a Private Chef or Performance Chef in an elite-private, professional sports, or comparable high-performance household environment.
  • Strong working knowledge of sports nutrition, macronutrient planning, and periodised menu delivery across training phases.
  • Confirmed track record of preparing food to macronutrient targets set by a nutritionist or sports scientist, and of holding those targets on the road.
  • Comfortable with a demanding, calendar-driven schedule that shifts and includes travel internationally.
  • Willingness and ability to travel extensively, often at short notice.
  • Exceptional discretion, professionalism, and a genuine understanding of what it means to work within a high-profile private household.
  • Flexible, calm under pressure, and used to operating as part of a wider support team rather than independently.
  • Excellent English, spoken and written.
  • Comfortable signing a Non-Disclosure Agreement before further details of the role are shared.

Strong advantage

  • Formal nutrition training or nutrition qualifications, such as a nutrition degree, sports nutrition certification, SENr registration, ISAK training, or equivalent.
  • Prior travel with a high profile individual, athlete or a competing team through a full competition calendar.
  • Exposure to elite-endurance, elite-strength, elite-racket, or elite-combat sport nutrition, depending on discipline.
  • Additional languages relevant to the Middle East region or to international competition venues.

Preferred background

  • Career Performance Chef or Private Chef with a demonstrated commitment to sports nutrition as a specialism, not a passing interest.
  • Comfortable operating in a strictly confidential, high-profile household environment.
  • Existing rapport with wider culinary and household teams, or a demonstrated ability to build it quickly.

Practical Information

  • The role is a full-time, live-in appointment, with a contract renewable every 12 months.
  • Compensation is shared with shortlisted candidates under NDA and reflects senior performance-chef benchmarks for elite private households.
  • Right-to-work requirements and visa support will be confirmed with shortlisted candidates.
  • Start date to be confirmed.
  • Accommodation is provided and will be a fully furnished, separate apartment to the main household.
  • Other package benefits include:
    • Annual flights home
    • Paid time off
    • Medical insurance
    • A 13-month salaried bonus

Application Process

Apply confidentially via the form on this page. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. Candidates who progress will be asked to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement before further details of the role, location, household, and terms are disclosed. If you do not hear from us within 14 days, please consider your application unsuccessful on this occasion.

  • Location: Miami, Florida
  • Salary: $85,000 to $115,000 gross per annum, dependent on experience, plus benefits
  • Contract: Full-time, permanent
  • Working Pattern: Six-day working week. 24/7 availability mindset. Hours are not fixed and follow the Principal's rhythm.
  • Languages: Native or near-native English. Spanish essential.
  • Right to Work: US citizen or Green Card holder required. No visa sponsorship.

Overview

Oplu is leading the search for a Personal Assistant to a single ultra-high-net-worth Principal. The role sits within the Principal's Single Family Office, reports to the Chief of Administration, and works alongside another PA already in position.

This is a team-based private PA position. The centre of gravity is day-to-day principal-direct support and social coordination. The Principal entertains, but not every night; the Principal travels, but not every week.

The Opportunity

The Single Family Office runs more like a private office than a traditional family office: informal, fast, judgement-led. The administrative team is young, intellectually curious, and prizes clear thinking over hierarchy. The Principal is commercially sharp, direct, and high-trust once trust is earned.

The successful candidate will hold a critical position in the Principal's Miami life. Continuity, clean handovers, and coverage across the PA pair matter as much as individual capability. The compensation reflects the intensity of the role and the six-day rhythm.

Who this role suits

An early-career Personal Assistant with one to three years' principal-direct experience, or a graduate from a top university with strong support-side internships and the drive to step straight into a UHNW position.

The right candidate is intellectually sharp, socially confident, and genuinely fluent in Miami: the restaurants, the wellness scene, the venue and service-provider network that a UHNW principal would actually use. Not the surface-level Miami of a tourist; the working Miami of someone who lives it.

Fluent Spanish is essential. Additional languages welcome.

This role is not for someone who wants a nine-to-five, a fixed calendar, or a role framed primarily as social. Hours follow the Principal, six days a week, with a 24/7 availability mindset and a genuinely commercial motivation on compensation.

Key Responsibilities

Principal-direct personal assistance

  • Day-to-day private PA support to the Principal: appointments, reminders, schedules, personal administration.
  • Manage the Principal's daily movements and diary in Miami with precision and discretion.
  • Handle personal correspondence, follow-ups, and action lists to closure.
  • Coordinate personal shopping, sourcing, online orders, deliveries, and returns.
  • Ad hoc in-person errands.

Team coverage within the Single Family Office

  • Work closely with the other PA and the Chief of Administration to ensure seamless coverage across locations and time zones.
  • Maintain clear communication, structured handovers, and consistent follow-through with the wider administrative team.
  • Support household payments, tracking, and related administrative coordination where required.

Guest and lifestyle coordination

  • Support the Principal's social plans, dinners, and guest arrangements when required, in coordination with the wider team.
  • Maintain the Principal's Miami network of restaurants, venues, wellness providers, and trusted contacts.
  • Secure reservations, access, and arrangements at short notice.
  • Maintain and update guest lists and required documentation.

Travel support

  • Coordinate travel when the Principal is on the move: flights, accommodation, transfers, drivers, reservations, on-the-ground logistics.
  • Occasional travel with the Principal when the trip specifically requires it. This is not the primary Travelling PA position; extensive travel is not expected.

Household and supplier coordination

  • Liaise with drivers, contractors, venues, and trusted third parties.
  • Pet care logistics where required (vet appointments, food, medication).
  • Coordinate household and service requirements alongside the on-site household team.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • One to three years' experience as a Personal Assistant, Lifestyle PA, or Private PA to a UHNW or HNW Principal, within a private household, Single Family Office, or Private Office. Recent graduates from a top-tier university with strong principal-support internships also considered.
  • Native or near-native English, written and verbal. Spanish essential.
  • Strong current working knowledge of Miami: restaurants, wellness, events, venues, and the service network a UHNW principal actually uses. Not surface-level.
  • Strong academic background, ideally from a top-ranked university.
  • Sharp judgement, intellectual agility, and the ability to read rooms, people, and situations quickly and correctly.
  • Exceptional organisational capacity and attention to detail; holds complex moving parts and does not drop them.
  • Calm under pressure. Discreet. Confidential.
  • Confident with technology for bookings, payments, tracking systems, shared calendars, and modern messaging channels.
  • Commercially motivated. Six-day working week; 24/7 availability mindset; comfortable with hours that follow the Principal's rhythm, including late finishes and weekends.
  • US citizen or Green Card holder. No visa sponsorship offered.
  • Miami-based or able to commute reliably from broader South Florida.
  • Comfortable signing a standard Non-Disclosure Agreement.

Strong advantage

  • Prior experience working in a multi-assistant team where coverage, handover, and collaboration matter.
  • Familiarity supporting international UHNW principals across cultures.
  • Additional languages beyond English and Spanish.
  • Comfort working alongside investment-side colleagues in a Single Family Office structure.

Preferred background

  • Early-career Personal Assistant from a UHNW private household, Single Family Office, or Private Office in Miami, New York, Los Angeles, or a comparable international city.
  • Graduate from a top-ranked university with strong support-side internships and a clear appetite for a UHNW principal-direct seat.

Practical Information

  • Live-in: This is a live-out position. Live-in may be considered by exception for the right candidate but is not the default.
  • Standard NDA required.

Application Process

Apply via the form on this page. Only shortlisted candidates will be contacted. If you do not hear from us within 14 days, please consider your application unsuccessful on this occasion.

The Opportunity

A Head of Food and Beverage is required for a farm-to-fork luxury country hotel and wellness retreat in West Dorset. This is a senior, hands-on leadership role: lead daily food and beverage operations across breakfast, lunch, and dinner service, oversee bespoke events for private groups, family stays, and corporate retreats, and embed the SOPs that turn a strong concept into a consistently delivered guest experience. Permanent, full-time. Immediate start.

About the property and the role

The property is a farm-to-fork luxury country hotel and wellness retreat in West Dorset. The concept, offering, and setting are already established. The priority now is to appoint a Head of Food and Beverage who can lead from the front, bring structure to the operation, raise service standards, and embed the SOPs that drive consistency, accountability, and operational excellence.

The Head of F&B reports directly to the General Manager and works closely with the Head Chef and Hotel Manager in weekly operational meetings. The role sits at the centre of the F&B operation, with visible floor presence across service and full ownership of the structure behind it.

The role is hands-on. The right candidate enjoys being in service, leading teams on the floor, and managing both the guest experience and the operational detail behind it. The cultural register is warm, polished, and discreet, in keeping with a luxury country hotel and wellness retreat environment.

Why this role

This is a senior F&B leadership opportunity inside a luxury hospitality environment, not a step-up from an Assistant F&B Manager or Restaurant Manager role. The property is hiring for confirmed Head of Food and Beverage experience, or equivalent senior F&B leadership in luxury hotels, retreats, private members' clubs, or premium restaurants. The judgement to set tone, to embed structure, and to manage performance fairly and decisively is non-negotiable.

For an experienced F&B leader who wants the variety of a country-hotel and wellness retreat operation, the autonomy to shape SOPs and standards across a full department, and a leadership team that protects quality, this brief offers all of it.

Key Responsibilities

Food and beverage service leadership

  • Lead from the floor across breakfast, lunch, and dinner service, holding a consistently high standard of hospitality.
  • Set the tone, pace, and expectations for service through visible, hands-on leadership.
  • Deliver a warm, polished, and discreet guest experience in keeping with a luxury country hotel and wellness retreat.
  • Drive consistency in presentation, service flow, and guest interaction across all F&B touchpoints.

SOPs, structure, and operational excellence

  • Build, implement, and maintain clear SOPs across service delivery, set-up, timing, closing procedures, and compliance.
  • Introduce stronger planning and mise-en-place processes to improve efficiency and reduce reactive service issues.
  • Establish and monitor performance benchmarks across service quality, cleanliness, consistency, and guest feedback.
  • Create the structure across the F&B operation that supports smooth daily service and stronger team performance.

Team leadership and development

  • Lead, coach, and develop a small service team, including multiple supervisors.
  • Set clear responsibilities, expectations, and accountability across the department.
  • Produce rotas in advance with contingency planning and strong labour-cost awareness.
  • Maintain high standards of communication through daily briefings, handovers, feedback, and performance management.
  • Manage underperformance fairly, confidently, and decisively where required.

Events, retreats, and bespoke guest service

  • Coordinate food and beverage delivery for retreat groups, special occasions, and corporate stays.
  • Bring creativity and attention to detail to service moments and events without compromising operational discipline.
  • Work closely with the Head Chef on menus, dietary requirements, allergens, and special guest requests.
  • Ensure a seamless guest journey across regular dining service and bespoke event experiences.

Commercial and stock management

  • Support the General Manager and Head Chef on revenue optimisation and F&B profitability.
  • Maintain strong control of stock, procurement, supplier relationships, and audit processes across food, beverage, and OS&E.
  • Identify sensible opportunities to enhance spend through food, beverage, and guest experience upselling.
  • Balance high service standards with operational efficiency and cost control.

Compliance, food safety, and best practice

  • Hold the highest standards of hygiene, cleanliness, and food safety across all service areas.
  • Ensure compliance with relevant FSA and HACCP standards and internal procedures.
  • Uphold best practice across health and safety, service preparation, and operational discipline.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • Proven experience already as a Head of Food and Beverage, F&B Manager, or equivalent senior F&B leadership role within luxury hotels, retreats, private members' clubs, or premium restaurants. This is not a step-up role.
  • Strong hands-on floor leadership style with a visible presence in service.
  • Experience implementing and enforcing SOPs, service standards, and operational governance.
  • Strong people leadership skills with the ability to coach, develop, and manage teams effectively.
  • Excellent planning capability across rotas, service preparation, team efficiency, and guest volumes.
  • Calm, professional communication skills and strong presence under pressure.
  • Comfortable running weekly 1:1 check-ins with the General Manager with clear agendas, actions, and follow-up.
  • Flexibility to work early mornings, evenings, and weekends as the operation requires.
  • Right to work in the UK.

Strong advantage

  • Experience with event service, special occasion dining, or retreat programming.
  • Confidence working with VIP or UHNW guest expectations.
  • WSET Level 2 or similar wine knowledge.
  • Experience improving service standards within an operation that requires tighter structure and leadership.

Working at this property

The property runs a service-led operation: breakfast, lunch, and dinner across regular dining, with private dining, bespoke guest experiences, retreat groups, family stays, and corporate events around it. The week has rhythm and pressure; early mornings, evenings, and weekends are part of the role.

The leadership culture is calm, structured, and standards-led. The Head of F&B works in the General Manager, Head Chef, and Hotel Manager triangle, with weekly operational meetings to align the week ahead. The right candidate brings energy and emotional intelligence to a demanding luxury hospitality setting, and is comfortable with the flexibility that comes with it.

Practical Information

  • Contract: Full-time, permanent.
  • Start: Immediate.
  • Reporting to: General Manager. Working closely with the Head Chef and Hotel Manager in weekly operational meetings.
  • Location: West Dorset, UK.
  • Hours: Full-time, including early mornings, evenings, and weekends as the operation requires.
