Job Description

We’re looking for an exceptional Executive Chef to lead a private high-end culinary program serving a discerning executive clientele in the heart of New York’s Financial District. This is a rare opportunity to step away from late-night restaurant hours and take full creative control of a kitchen with a set Monday through Friday schedule , 9am to 5pm.

You’ll design and execute elevated menus rooted in seasonality, technique, and elegance - creating refined experiences that reflect the standards of a Michelin-caliber kitchen. The ideal candidate has experience working in one to three Michelin star restaurants in NYC and brings a sharp eye for detail, presentation, and hospitality.

What You’ll Do:

  • Own all aspects of the kitchen - menu development, sourcing, prep, execution, and plating
  • Create bespoke menus that rotate frequently and reflect the highest level of seasonal cuisine

What We’re Looking For:

  • Experience in 1 - 3 Michelin starred kitchens (NYC preferred)
  • Comfortable creating tasting-style menus and à la carte options
  • Passion for quality ingredients, modern technique, and thoughtful presentation
  • Polished and collected energy in a professional, client-facing environment

The Perks:

  • Monday through Friday, daytime schedule
  • Paid holidays and generous time off
  • Freedom to design your own menus with supportive leadership
  • Competitive salary and benefits
  • Opportunity to be part of an elite, private dining experience

This role is ideal for a chef ready to bring fine-dining excellence to a setting with better hours and creative autonomy.

LifeWorks Restaurant Group designs custom solutions for clients looking to take amenities to the next level. Our team of forward-thinkers look at each opportunity as an experience—not a requirement—and deliver out-of-this world, truly sensory experiences, feeding company culture. From the beginning of each client relationship, the team at LifeWorks Restaurant Group establishes a transparency with its partners, from space design and delivery to marketing of the final, branded product.
