Madonna is looking to hire a private chef
The 60-year-old singer has posted a job advertisement on the website Talent Private Staff - which offers jobs for people looking to work as private household staff members - for a private chef to work in her London, Lisbon, and New York City properties.
26 October 2018
Madonna's job offer is listed as offering a whopping £85,000 to £110,000 a year, and the description states that she would like all her meals to follow the "basic rules" of kosher cooking.
The advertisement reads: "Top Chef with existing Private Household experience required, for VVIP client in Mayfair. This is a London based position, with a Chef in place at US residences (however, you must be willing to travel to the US when required).
"To be suitable for this role, you must have knowledge of kosher cooking. The Principal does not run a kosher kitchen (separate equipment for meat/dairy etc), but you must be familiar with all the basic rules (no dairy and meat served together, no pork, fish must have fins and scales- no swordfish, shellfish etc.)"
The 'Like a Virgin' hitmaker wants her successful applicant to be able to keep their meals "healthy and simple", as well as making them family friendly, in order to cater to her brood - Lourdes, 22, Rocco, 18, David, 13, Mercy James, 12, and twins Stella and Esther, six.
The job ad continues: "The clients favoured foods are Italian cuisine (risotto is a favourite), Asian- Sushi/Sashimi, classic European and American dishes.
"They are not looking for a fine dining Chef; food should be healthy, simple and family style.
"You will be cooking for the Principal, any guests/staff and young children (who all love food and eat the same as the Principal)."
Madonna's lucky new chef will start their new position in late October or early November.
