We are a dynamic group dedicated to onboarding talented chefs and their recipes into the CookUnity platform. From training chefs on our tools to refining recipes that meet company standards, portfolio and supply chain needs, we ensure a seamless integration into our ecosystem. Our work bridges the gap between culinary creativity and operational excellence, bringing exceptional dishes to life!

We’re seeking a strategic and resourceful Sales Analyst/Platform Creator Acquisition Associate to help scale the most important part of our platform: our community of talented chefs. This role will be instrumental in identifying, vetting, and securing top culinary talent in key markets, and will help build the future of how chefs grow their brands and reach new audiences through CookUnity.

This is a remote position based within one of the following locations, where our facilities are located: New York, Los Angeles, Austin, Chicago, Atlanta, Seattle, Miami, or Maryland—with up to 25% travel across the U.S.

• Plan and execute recruitment efforts across CookUnity’s eight U.S. and Canadian markets (with future markets in development), identifying and securing high-potential independent chefs and creators who align with CookUnity’s values and culinary standards
• Develop and execute creative outreach strategies across platforms such as LinkedIn, Indeed, industry events, and chef referrals
• Conduct in-depth interviews and coordinate tours & tasting evaluations to assess culinary style, production readiness, and market fit

• Partner cross-functionally with our culinary, onboarding, portfolio, and local operations teams to ensure a smooth transition from recruitment to active production
• Represent CookUnity in chef-facing meetings with professionalism, warmth, and deep knowledge of the platform’s value proposition
• Surface insights on market trends, industry leaders, and weekly progress on store supply targets to continuously improve our recruitment strategy
• Support the design and rollout of recruitment campaigns, culinary showcases, and strategic initiatives to grow chef acquisition at scale

• 2+ years of experience in recruitment, sales, culinary partnerships, hospitality operations, or chef-facing/client- facing roles
• Proven success in building and managing pipelines, closing top-tier candidates, and driving acquisition goals
• Deep appreciation for culinary artistry and a desire to help chefs scale their business in new and impactful ways
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to tailor messaging for different audiences
• Highly organized and self-motivated, with a proactive mindset and strong follow-through
• Familiarity with CRM/project management tools (e.g., Monday, Notion, Google Workspace); tech-savvy and quick to learn new systems
• Knowledge of the food industry, major culinary hubs, and up-and-coming chefs across the U.S.
