RESPONSIBILITIES

*** Love Cooking? Love People? This Might Be Your Dream Job ***

If you’re that person who lights up the kitchen — the one your friends call when they need a recipe tip or a taste tester — we want to meet you.

At Food Playground, we believe in the power of food to connect people. We’re a social enterprise that turns passionate home cooks (like you!) into confident culinary instructors. No fancy titles, celebrity chefs or high-profile influencers among us. Just real humble people sharing real food and real stories.

Here’s an interesting fact — every member in our team started as a stay-at-home mum who simply loved cooking for their families and sharing recipes with friends. Today, they are inspiring others through hands-on cultural cooking classes for tourists and fun corporate team-building workshops. And guess what? You could be next.

What You’ll Do:
1) Conduct 2–3 fun, interactive cooking or baking sessions a week (each up to 6 hours)
2) Share your favourite recipes, stories, and kitchen tips with our guests
3) Be part of a close-knit team that laughs, learns, and supports one another

REQUIREMENTS

You’ll Be Perfect If You:
✅ Are available on weekday mornings and afternoons (bonus if you can do some evenings and weekends)
✅ Can commit to at least 3 sessions per week
✅ Are confident speaking in front of small groups
✅ Can cook and chat at the same time (like you do at family gatherings!)
✅ Are a Singaporean looking for flexible, meaningful work

And don’t worry — you don’t need any teaching experience. We’ll train and mentor you every step of the way. All you need is an appetite to learn, willingness to work hard and a love for sharing good food.

(Note: As we are a social enterprise focusing on providing flexi-work opportunities for locals, we will only consider Singaporeans for this role)

Working Hours

Up to 3 weekdays per week (we will try our best to accommodate your schedule) Up to 6 hrs per session, depending on client's requirements
