Job Summary

Private Household Cook (Relocation Opportunity in Canada)

Westmount Park Investments

Full-time, in-person; relocation required. Relocation expenses covered.

Etobicoke, ON, Canada

About the Role

A private Canadian (Etobicoke, ON) residence is seeking a warm, polished, and highly capable Italian Cook who is interested in relocating to Canada to work within a team environment, providing food preparation and guest services for the family and their visitors. Relocation expenses will be covered, including accommodation, visa, and travel.

This is a hands-on, guest-facing role — the right person is as comfortable plating an elegant charcuterie board as they are greeting guests, staying gracious under a full house, and finding productive ways to spend quiet stretches between service.

The household entertains frequently (typically 2–3 times per week) and expects restaurant-quality presentation with a personal, unfussy touch. This is not a back-of-house kitchen role — it's a service-oriented position for someone who takes real pride in hospitality and serving, not ego.

Key Responsibilities

• Prepare and beautifully present charcuterie boards, appetizers, and ready-to-serve dishes for family meals and guest entertaining. You will be trained on family recipes and presentation techniques.

• Assist in preparing meals and snacks made-to-order on request, including during extended evenings when guests stay late

• Maintain a rotation of pre-prepared, high-quality dishes ready to serve on short notice

• Occasionally serve food and beverages directly to family and guests with warmth and professionalism

• Fully clean and reset the kitchen and serving areas after each use

• Help to manage kitchen inventory, restocking, and ingredient/supply ordering

• Use downtime between service periods productively — kitchen organization, inventory management, or other household support tasks as directed

• Maintain the highest standards of discretion, presentation, and guest comfort at all times

Ideal Candidate

• Italian cook with strong professional experience in Italian cuisine

• Willing and able to relocate to Canada

• Prior experience in private household service, personal cook work, or hospitality service is preferred

• Genuinely warm, easygoing, and guest-focused — someone who enjoys serving and puts people at ease, not a rigid or hierarchy-driven kitchen personality

• Strong food presentation skills, especially with boards, platters, and elegant small plates

• Reliable, discreet, and professional in a private home environment

• Physically able to stand/work extended shifts and manage a full-service evening

What's in it for you? (Salary & Benefits)

• On-site work in Etobicoke, ON — collaborate in person with your team within the estate

• Competitive hourly wage that can move to full time salary for the right fit.
