Specialist Chef Recruitment From CJUK

Since 1990, CJUK has been working closely with talented relief Chefs and hospitality professionals to work at pubs, restaurants and hotels in Lancashire, Manchester, Yorkshire, Cumbria, Cheshire, Merseyside, London and the Midlands on a temporary basis.

We don’t just recruit Chefs, but we get to know them personally to help them with their careers and match them to the right Chef jobs. We only register the very best talent then assign them work based on their skills, personalities and preferences. This enables our expert Account Managers to work in partnership with our clients to understand their business culture and find the best suited individual for them.

We’re leading by example and proving that there is #ABetterWay for Chefs to work in the hospitality industry, ensuring they are paid for every hour and have the freedom to choose how, when and where they work.

If you are looking for your next temporary Chef job or need help finding the perfect team member, call the CJUK Recruitment Team on 01254 355666 or email talent@cjuk.co.uk.
