Job Details

Our family ranch is located in Jackson Hole, Wyoming. Between mid June and late September, family and friends come to Jackson and stay in the historic cabins at the heart of the ranch. We are seeking a cook who can prepare breakfast and dinner, six days a week for between 8 - 20 people. The right candidate should be an experienced cook with the ability to plan, shop and budget for 12 meals per week for groups of varying size. Important to be a team player, as the job will require working and living in close proximity to a kitchen assistant/housekeeper and a wrangler.

The ideal candidate is friendly, organized, enthusiastic and has experience providing daily meals for a large group. The head cook interacts with the family daily to verify meal counts and arrivals and departures. The summer staff helps each other out so the ability to get along and work with others is critical.

Family food preferences are for balanced, healthy meals and homemade desserts.

Housing and meals are included, and you will have a day off on Sunday. Pay is $200-$240/day plus end of season bonus.

If you are interested, please email your resume and at least two references who can speak to your kitchen experience. We would love to find a Chef who wants to return year after year, and for the right candidate, a candidate who is capable of taking on some other roles, we may be able to offer year round part time work and housing.
