RMH-NY is launching a new, in-house culinary program supported by newly renovated kitchens opening this spring. The Head Chef will play a foundational role in building, shaping, and leading this program from the ground up. This is not a role stepping into a fully established operation — it is an opportunity for a chef who thrives in program-building, is highly hands-on, and is energized by mission-driven work.
The Head Chef will initially work alongside existing catered meal partnerships and volunteers while gradually building an internal kitchen team capable of delivering breakfast, lunch, dinner, and grab-and-go offerings daily. This role requires a unique blend of culinary excellence, leadership, operational discipline, and comfort working with volunteers and community groups. The Head Chef will be a visible and welcoming presence in the House, helping steward volunteers and donors while ensuring high-quality, nutritious, and family-friendly meals. This program represents a major evolution in how RMH-NY supports families.
