Our Delicious History
MyChef NE began with one chef and one household, built on the belief that great food and genuine care belong together. As word spread, more families signed on, more chefs joined our team, and the idea of cooking differently—directly in people’s homes—took root.
What drives us is simple: we love cooking, but we love its impact even more. Preparing meals for busy parents, athletes chasing goals, or seniors who want nutritious comfort brings purpose back into the kitchen. Each plate proves that a chef’s craft can make daily life calmer, healthier, and happier.
Today, we’re proud to offer chef jobs in Omaha that honor that vision. Joining MyChef means stepping into homes, building trust, and cooking meals that matter.
Our Values
Working at MyChef NE delivers personal rewards that go beyond the restaurant kitchen. You’ll work directly with and for our clients, using all that you’ve learned to help them eat well, learn better cooking techniques, and—best of all—take great pleasure in your skills! Discover what it’s like to be appreciated with every dish you create.
OUR VALUES
The Best of the Best
You’ll join a team of professionals who are serious about their craft and proud of their standards. Every chef is background-checked, trained in safe food handling, and supported to keep growing—because our reputation rests on the skill and trust of our chefs.
Personalized Service
No two kitchens or clients are alike. With our chef jobs in Omaha, you’ll design meals around unique tastes, dietary needs, and family routines. Every assignment challenges you to adapt creatively, keeping your skills sharp and your work meaningful.
Nutritional Excellence
Our clients rely on chefs who understand the link between food and wellness. You’ll design menus that taste incredible while advancing goals like weight management, athletic performance, or long-term health.
Culinary Education
Cooking here means more than dropping dishes at the pass. Clients often watch, ask, and learn while you work, giving you the chance to share techniques and tips. Each visit is a chance to inspire confidence as well as serve great food.
Our Culture
To us, the experience of working as a personal chef is about building genuine connections while our clients get their favorite foods. Every client has their own preferences, routines, and needs, and we shape each menu around those details to create memorable, lasting experiences.
Our team loves the craft of cooking, but even more, we love what it means to cook for people who truly benefit from it. That’s why MyChef NE exists: to bring joy, care, and flavor into homes across the Omaha metro—one kitchen at a time.
What Makes a MyChef Omaha Job Cool?
Always New
Restaurant kitchens repeat the same menus night after night. Here, every household brings a new puzzle—different tastes, cultures, and dietary needs. One week you’re designing a macro-friendly menu for an athlete, the next you’re recreating a family’s comfort food with a modern twist.
Skill Growth
Instead of being boxed into one station, you’ll use the full range of your training every day. Our chefs sharpen their technique by solving real-world challenges. Growth here isn’t optional; it’s built in.
Having Fun
Working directly with clients creates genuine relationships around food. You’ll collaborate on menus, talk through dietary needs, and share in the joy of meals made personal. This connection transforms kitchens into lively spaces where cooking feels rewarding.
Job Satisfaction
At the end of a shift, there’s no mystery about your impact. You’ll hear the thank-yous, see the smiles, and leave knowing your skills made life easier for someone. Our chef jobs in Omaha trade anonymous line work for visible, personal gratitude, and that changes everything.

Frequently Asked Questions
We look for chefs who bring both skill and professionalism. A food handler or ServSafe certification is ideal (or willingness to get one quickly), a reliable way to travel to clients, and the ability to plan and cook independently in someone else’s kitchen.
Just as important is your people side because you’ll be interacting directly with families, athletes, and event hosts, so being approachable and adaptable matters as much as your knife skills.
We don’t expect you to carry a full kitchen on your back. Clients have the basics—stoves, ovens, pans—but you’ll want to bring your own knives, a few favorite utensils, and any specialty tools you rely on.
Think of it like having a portable kit that makes you comfortable and consistent, while respecting and working within the client’s space. We’ll guide you on what’s essential so you’re never overburdened.
Not exactly. A private chef usually works full-time for a single household, tied to their schedule and routines.
At MyChef NE, our chef jobs in Omaha give you a portfolio of clients. You’ll cook weekly for some, handle events for others, and keep variety in your work. That means you enjoy the stability of recurring clients, but with the freedom and creativity that comes from serving different families and occasions across the city.
Flexibility is one of the biggest perks. Most meal-prep clients schedule during daytime hours, leaving evenings and late nights free—something restaurant work rarely allows.
Events can add variety on weekends, but you’ll always know your schedule in advance. With chef jobs in Omaha at MyChef, you build a routine that supports both your career and your life outside the kitchen.
