About Biospan

We place chefs into private households to deliver real, whole-food cooking with clear nutrition intent. Our clients include busy families, founders, and performance-minded professionals. We focus on simple, organic ingredients, smart prep systems, and consistent execution. When a client has a health goal or dietary protocol, we translate it into practical menus without fuss.

How we work

We keep menus seasonal and straightforward, and balance flavour with function. We're big on mise en place, safe batch prep, and efficient use of time. Chefs log dishes, portions, and any notes (preferences, allergies, wins, misses) so the next cook day is faster and better. When useful, you'll get light input from our nutritionists — macros, swaps, or protocol tweaks — but you still own the cooking.

What you'll do

You'll plan and cook meals tailored to the household, manage shopping and inventory, portion and label for the week, and keep the kitchen clean and organised. You'll adapt to preferences, accommodate allergies or intolerances, and update a simple log so we can measure what works. You'll communicate clearly with the client (and us) so expectations stay aligned.

Schedule and location

You'll work 5 days per week for roughly. Each day is a . You will work at the clients home. The client's is based in West Vancouver.

A driving licence, active chef insurance, and a clear background check are required. An interest in nutrition and a calm, systematic approach to meal prep will help you succeed.
