James Beard Foundation is a nonprofit organization whose mission is to recognize and honor chefs and the food they create that represents America’s diverse culture and history. Dedicated to “good food for good,” the foundation was named after the late James Beard, a celebrated chef, cookbook author, teacher, television host, and “dean of American cookery.” When hiring, the organization looks for qualified applicants who share the foundation’s commitment to pushing for new standards in the restaurant industry and broader food system while addressing issues of racial and gender equity and pushing for more environmentally sustainable practices industrywide. Past flexible jobs at the foundation have been full-time roles with remote work options posted in the nonprofit & philanthropy, communications, and advertising & PR career fields.

Offering a dynamic work environment, James Beard Foundation provides eligible employees with benefits and perks, including healthcare coverage, a retirement savings plan, generous paid time off, discounted health club memberships, commuter benefits as applicable, and more. The foundation is globally recognized for its annual James Beard Awards, which celebrate the nation’s best independent restaurants, chefs, cookbooks, publishers, broadcast media, and others in the “food ecosystem.” Self-described as a “people-first” organization, the foundation’s guiding values include equity, transparency, respect, and passion, among other principles. Working to achieve a “good food world through thought leadership, education, and advocacy,” the foundation was founded in 1986, while the awards were established four years later and typically are scheduled around May 5th, the anniversary of James Beard’s birth.
