  • Fluent English required; French, Turkish or Russian a strong advantage
  • Excellent organisational skills and stock management
  • Confident, discreet, and able to work independently
  • Passionate about sourcing and using the best organic produce
  • Flexible and dependable, with a service-minded approach

Key Responsibilities:

  • Prepare breakfast, lunch, and dinner daily for the Principal, with flexibility to pre-prepare evening meals when needed
  • Provide daily lunch for approximately five household staff
  • Create weekly menus inspired by Mediterranean, Turkish, and European cuisines, with a focus on light, nutritious, and easily digestible meals
  • Prioritise wellness-focused food over complexity, using only organic, high-quality ingredients
  • Oversee grocery shopping, stock replenishment, and pantry organisation
  • Maintain a calm, clutter-free, and well-run kitchen, supported by a team who assist with serving and cleaning
  • Prepare meals in advance when scheduled days off require it
  • Occasionally cater for last-minute guests, keeping a flexible, can-do attitude
