We’re an Ireland based chef recruitment agency growing numbers of Chefs trust to find chef jobs. Employers are also discovering that among hospitality recruitment agencies we’re the agency to come to when they need to find chefs. Both Chefs and Employers get an accredited catering recruitment agency service which connects chef job opportunities with culinary talent. Chefs know we contact them only about chef jobs which are a good match for both their ambition and their abilities. That’s why such a high proportion of chefs we introduce to employers, get the chef job they’re after and so many employers get the chefs they need. We bring a track record of excellence in recruitment together with a deep knowledge of the catering and hospitality industry; in particular chefs and the skills and attributes they need to do a great job.

First Among Catering Recruitment Agencies for Chefs

We recognise that for many employers a Catering Recruitment Agency isn’t the first port of call when a vacancy arises. Indeed we’d be the first to advise against an “agency first” approach to all chef vacancies; it isn’t cost effective and often it isn’t even necessary. Yet there are occasions when a Catering Recruitment Agency should be your go to solution for Chefs of all grades and often especially for those senior, or niche, chef roles which can determine the success or failure of your business. Agency avoidance in these circumstances can often prove to be the most expensive “economy” you’ll ever make; especially when it’s free to talk to us and the only bill you’d ever receive from us is once we’ve solved your problem. If we don’t find your Chef then you don’t pay, anything, it’s as straightforward as that.

Among The Chef Roles we fill:

Executive Chefs
Head Chefs
Sous Chefs
Chef de Partie
Chef Tournant
Pastry Chefs
Konditor
Confectioner
Baker
Chefs Specialising in Ethnic Cuisines

Being a Catering Recruitment Agency that specialises in Chefs, and only Chefs, gives us the type of focus that has enabled us to build up one of the best networks of Chefs both on a local level here in Ireland and internationally. What that means to you is that the more demanding your chef needs, the more likely it is that you’ll want to get in touch with us. We’d be delighted to hear from you.

Going Further Than Catering Recruitment Agencies

At TOPCHEFS we don’t stop at finding jobs for chefs and chefs for employers, we also provide a range of premium services & training courses designed to meet the needs of both and which go beyond the service set typically expected of catering recruitment agencies. Going beyond basic catering recruitment and offering further services keeps us in touch with what’s happening in the hospitality sector.

Chefs:

CV Preparation, Chef Job Search & Interview Techniques

While we encourage chefs to get to know us at the earliest opportunity perhaps you already find yourself looking to reestablish yourself in a new kitchen. If your previous employer hasn’t assisted you, by providing any of the reassignment services we encourage employers to offer staff prior to leaving, then it’s still not too late. We can help you to get the edge, when it comes to getting a fresh chef job, and get the interview by tailoring a CV Preparation, Job Search & Interview Techniques programme to best position you for reemployment.

Accomplished Careers Consultants

There comes a time in the career of every chef when they begin to consider their long term career goals and how best to reach them. What’s next for you? A new position as a chef? Or do you have other goals, perhaps in a new field or perhaps in something where your experience as a chef can still be invaluable. We got you covered on that too with our Accomplished Career Consultants program. To learn more Chef Careers Coaching

Employers:

While HR consultancy services isn’t a subject usually of interest to Catering Recruitment Agencies we’ve different.

This programme can be as full featured or as “lite’ as your circumstances dictate. We’d like if all HR decisions, especially those related to chefs jobs, revolved around new hires; that said we do understand that can’t always be the case and so we’ve devised a menu of services for employers who must release valued talent.
