Our esteemed Client focuses on providing an authentic, luxurious, and transformative African wilderness experience with a strong emphasis on conservation, wellness, and community involvement. It will offer curated accommodations, guided safaris, wellness rituals, and gourmet dining, all designed to minimize environmental impact.
This is a unique opportunity for a passionate chef to build a fully sustainable, off-the-grid kitchen from the ground up—where fine dining meets conscious living. The ideal candidate will bring experience from ultra-luxury lodges or high-end boutique hotels, with strong leadership, creativity, and a deep respect for local culture and the environment. Daily guest interaction, food and wine pairing expertise, and a passion for zero-waste cooking are essential. If you’re ready to create a truly authentic and elevated dining experience rooted in sustainability, we’d love to hear from you.
 
REQUIREMENTS, SKILL & EXPERIENCE to excel in this role:
 
• Relevant diploma or qualification in culinary arts
• Previous experience as a Sous Chef in a fine dining, 5-star lodge or boutique hotel
• Confident, well-spoken, and comfortable engaging with guests daily
• Support the Executive Chef in kitchen operations: prep, production, stock control, scheduling, and compliance
• Contribute to menu development, incorporating sustainability and zero-waste principles
• Assist in managing and mentoring junior kitchen staff with a focus on skills development and local upliftment
• Collaborate with FOH to ensure seamless food and wine pairings
• Help establish and maintain on-site gardens, integrating fresh produce into daily menus
• Embrace a “farm-to-table meets urban refinement” food philosophy
 
This is a live-in position.
