R&D Chef/Content Creator/Influencer

a Unique Culinary Opportunity for the Right Person

• Are you tired of life on the line?
• Are you looking for better work/life balance with more time for family and friends?
• Do you love to experiment in the kitchen and work creatively?
• Are you social media savvy with a good on camera presence?

If you answered yes to all these questions, we have an exciting opportunity for you as an R&D Chef/Content Creator/Influencer on our team at Modernist Pantry.

Modernist Pantry is known throughout the restaurant industry as the go to source for unique functional ingredients and culinary knowledge. We help cooks transform ordinary meals into memorable and magical experiences. We also have a popular and growing YouTube channel where we share secrets and innovations from our Test Kitchen.

As a member of our team, your responsibility is to understand and use our ingredients to develop new recipes, techniques, and content. You’ll use your creativity to solve culinary problems, and share your discoveries directly with our customers. This includes your role as an on camera personality/influencer on our social media channels. And you will be a lead in our Test Kitchen collaborating with the rest of our team to develop informative and entertaining content.

In addition to these requirements, you must have a minimum of 3 – 5 years on the line in a full-service environment and have attained the rank of at least Sous Chef. A culinary degree and fine dining experience are a big plus, but not a deal breaker. You also must live in or be willing to relocate to the Portsmouth NH (Seacoast) Region.

In addition to a fun and engaging work environment we offer you the following benefits.

• Creative freedom & opportunity for personal growth
• Work/life balance with a 9-to-5 work schedule Monday through Friday.
• Ten paid holidays per year.
• Two weeks additional paid time off per year to start.
• 401K plan with matching contributions.
• Please note that we do NOT offer paid health care at this time.

Salary is dependent on your experience and fit for the position. There is also the opportunity to share in the monetization of our social media channels based on growth.

If you think you’re the right person, send your resume and a link to a brief video (unedited from your smartphone is fine) about yourself and why you feel this opportunity is for you. Also include links to your active social media profiles.

P.S. If you have reservations about the cannabis industry this is probably not the role for you.
