We're hiring a Head Chef for our upcoming boutique wellness property in Mulshi — an hour from Pune, tucked into the Sahyadri hills, overlooking the lake. Small inventory, strong sense of place, real local food, unhurried service.

Pasban — The Gatekeeper is the next chapter from Akhil Anand, who scaled Tree of Life Resorts & Hotels into one of India's most respected boutique hospitality brands (eighteen destinations across the country).

Who we're looking for
10–12 years in professional kitchens, with time spent leading or serving as the second-in-command of a full kitchen
Robust menu design instincts — someone who thinks in seasons, sources hyperlocal, and can build a menu around what the land actually gives us
Command of food operations end-to-end — costing, portioning,



waste, kitchen roster, vendor management
Deep respect for kitchen hygiene, HACCP, and food safety protocols
Wellness-cuisine sensibility is a robust plus — knowing how to build something light, honest, and nourishing without dumbing down flavour

What we offer
Full time role, based on-site in Mulshi
Accommodation and meals provided on the property — you live where you work, in one of the most beautiful settings in Maharashtra
Creative ownership of the F&B; story from day one
Direct working relationship with the founder
