About Chef-Hire
Chef-Hire is India’s chef-on-demand platform, run by TFCS Kitchen Solutions Ltd and founded by
Chef Amit Ghotikar. We place trained culinary and hospitality professionals — chefs, bartenders and butlers — with private households, farmhouses, estates and businesses, and we curate meals and events. Every professional on our roster is background-checked and NDA-bound before entering a client’s home or business.
Today our supply base is deepest in Mumbai and Indore. Our clients sit at the top of the market —
HNI families, farmhouse and villa owners, and corporate and wedding catering. The next stage of our growth is geographic.
The Role
We are hiring our first dedicated B2B salesperson to own revenue across three segments — HNI households, farmhouse and estate staffing, and catering and events — and to open four current secondary markets: Pune, Hyderabad, Delhi NCR and Bengaluru.
This is a closing role, not a support role. You will carry a target, build your own pipeline, run the full cycle from first meeting to signed placement, and report directly to the founder. In return you get a market that is genuinely underserved, a supply base that already exists, and the mandate to shape how we sell.
Key Responsibilities
HNI households
- Pipeline. Build a named list of HNI families, family offices, wealth managers and estate managers in each city, and work it systematically.
Own the cycle. First meeting, requirement capture, onboarding, shortlist presentation, trial coordination, negotiation and close.
- Referrals. Turn every placed client into two introductions.
This market runs on trust and referral, not advertising.
- Account growth. Renewals, additional staff, event upsell — a placed client should be a growing account, not a one-time fee.
Farmhouse and estates
- Owners and operators. Farmhouse and second-home owners around Mumbai — Alibaug,
Karjat, Lonavala, Igatpuri — and their equivalents in every new city.
- Channel partners. Property managers, villa rental operators and gated-community managers who control access to these owners.
- Seasonal selling. Weekend cover, festive periods and peak season packages, sold ahead of the season rather than during it.
Catering and events
- Planners and venues. Wedding planners, event agencies, corporate offices, clubs and banquet venues.
- Repeat calendar. Build a book of recurring events — Diwali, weddings, corporate offsites — so revenue is forecastable.
- Crew selling. Chefs, bartenders and butlers as a package, not single placements.
City expansion — the core of this role
- Open four markets. Pune, Hyderabad, Delhi NCR and Bengaluru, sequenced with the founder.
- Supply and demand together. Work with our recruiting team to build local chef supply in parallel with the client pipeline — we cannot sell a city we cannot staff.
- Local presence. Identify the right partners, venues and networks in each city; represent Chef-
Hire there in person.
- First placements. Get to a first closed placement in each new city, then repeatable volume.
- Report. A monthly city-by-city view of pipeline, supply, closures and blockers.
