Join a New Category of Food Service in Riyadh (Relocation Provided)

Company: RoomService

Location: Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Salary: $64,000 USD / year (SAR 240,000) — fully tax-free

Employment Type: Full-time

RoomService is a new kind of food platform launching in Riyadh and Dubai. We give households access to a dedicated private chef — but instead of cooking inside someone's home, our chefs work from modern, fully equipped cloud kitchens, each serving 5–15 households with fully customised, fresh-to-order meals.

Think of it as the infrastructure behind a new category of personalised food. Not a meal plan. Not a delivery app. Not a meal kit. Something new — and we need talented chefs to make it real.

You'll be the chef behind the food. No managing a brigade. No front-of-house politics. No restaurant chaos. You'll have a dedicated mise en place team handling all your prep — so you walk into a kitchen that's ready to go, and you do what you do best: cook. Great food, daily, for households who rely on you.

What you'll do:

• Cook fresh, personalised meals daily from a fully equipped cloud kitchen in Riyadh
• Plan menus for 5–15 households — a dedicated mise en place team handles all the prep, so you focus on what matters: cooking
• Adapt to different dietary preferences, cuisines, and household needs
• Maintain high food safety and hygiene standards
• Work independently with full ownership of your kitchen

What we're looking for:

• Chef de Partie to Sous Chef level experience (3+ years in a professional kitchen)
• Confident cooking across multiple cuisines — you don't need to be a specialist, but you need range
• Comfortable working independently without a brigade around you
• Genuinely passionate about cooking — this role is hands-on, every day
• Open to relocating to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia

Nice to have:

• Experience in private/household chef roles
• Familiarity with Middle Eastern or South Asian cuisines
• Experience with meal planning, dietary customisation, or batch cooking at scale

• $64,000 USD / year (SAR 240,000) — completely tax-free
• Relocation costs covered
• Visa sponsorship and processing
• Accommodation support
• Class A health insurance
• Work in a brand-new, fully equipped cloud kitchen
• Full mise en place team supporting you — your prep is done, you just cook
• Be part of a founding team building something from scratch
• Career growth as RoomService scales across the Gulf

Saudi Arabia is in the middle of a massive transformation. Riyadh is one of the fastest-growing cities in the world, with a booming food scene and a cost of living well below Dubai or London. Your salary goes further, there's zero income tax, and you'll be part of a city that's being rebuilt from the ground up.

Send us your CV and a brief note about your cooking background and what excites you about this role. We'd love to see a portfolio or photos of your food if you have them.
