Boutique Recruitment
Performance begins
on your plate.
Discreet private chef placement for elite football and NBA athletes. We find, vet and present the chef — you focus on the game.
Who we are
A boutique recruitment agency based in Lisbon, working quietly with elite football and NBA athletes across Europe and the USA — built on the belief that finding a private chef deserves the same rigor as everything else on an athlete's team.
The approach
A Private Chef is not luxury. It's load management.
Nutrition, recovery and routine decide careers. The wrong hire costs you weeks; the right one becomes part of your performance team.
“I'm not the chef. I'm the filter.”
Why athletes choose us
Built around the way you live and train
Nutrition that fits the calendar
Match days, travel, recovery and off-season each ask for something different. Your chef plans around your schedule — not the other way around.
Absolute discretion
NDA protected from the first message. Your identity, your details and your search stay between you and us.
Europe & USA, properly
We place in two markets only, so we know both properly — the standards, the kitchens and the people worth trusting.
The kitchen is where the next match is won.

Questions
Before you reach out
Who is this for?
Professional football and NBA athletes based in Europe or the USA.
How are chefs vetted?
Every chef in our network has their professional documents and specialties on file before we ever present them. We personally select who reaches your search — you only ever see candidates who have already passed that stage.
Is everything confidential?
Yes. We work NDA protected and treat every search with absolute discretion. Health information such as dietary needs and allergies is stored encrypted and used only to find your chef.
Is my payment secure?
Your recruitment commission is processed by Stripe. We never see or store your card details, and your search only begins once Stripe confirms the payment — never by manual action on our side.
How do I get access?
Request access and create your account. We review every application personally and approve athletes one by one before opening the portal.
What does it cost?
A fixed recruitment commission applies, set by region. You will see the exact amount in your portal once your account is approved — before anything is charged.
Who chooses the chef?
You do. We search and vet, present the candidates that fit, and only confirm the placement once you approve.
Ready when you are.
Request access to the athlete portal. We'll review your application personally.
