Did the end of 2016 mean the end of a permanent job? Or are you looking to try something completely different? Then joining the CJUK brigade is certainly something to consider.
Working with CJUK certainly has many benefits, here are just a few;
#ABetterWay
We want you to be rewarded, motivated and challenged by your work. We all know that being a chef can be tough but also extremely rewarding if you have the right support, working conditions and pay.

Variety
We pride ourselves on our ability to keep you motivated and challenged. You’ll have the opportunity to work in different establishments across the country and acquire various skills that you may not have been exposed to in a permanent job.
Accommodation & Travel Contributions
In most contracts, accommodation will be provided, so this means that you can travel across the country and not have to worry about where you will be staying as this will be provided for you. Also, the majority of our clients offer a contribution to your travel which will help with travel costs.
Become an ‘Elite Chef’
We have a number of Chefs who are proud to be called ‘Elite Chefs’. These are loyal CJUK Chefs who are professional, have a great attitude towards work and loved by clients up and down the country. As a result, they get the first refusal on work and receive branded CJUK workwear as well as benefiting from plenty of other perks. Find out more about CJUK Elite Chefs.
Don’t just take it from us, here’s what CJUK Chefs have to say about working with us;
John – “I’m so pleased with the way CJUK operates. It is great to be earning holiday pay, it’s such a stark contrast to other agencies I’ve worked with – absolutely fantastic!”
Matt – “I long believed that working 70+ hours a week and getting paid no more than minimum wage was the norm. I then got in touch with CJUK and I’ve never looked back. You get treated with respect, paid for every hour you do and get to spend more time with people you love. In my opinion, it’s the future of catering, it really is #ABetterWay”
Andrew – “CJUK isn’t just another agency, I have never worked for anybody like them. They take the time to actually call and speak to me instead of sending emails/texts. I am treated like a real person.”
Pat – “I have enjoyed every placement CJUK have sent me on. I’ve been offered permanent positions but I wanted to carry on my career as a CJUK Cook. The team always ensure that I’m not out of work. I can honestly say that this amazing team have really looked after me.”
