1. Get in Touch
Contact us by phone or email to outline your staffing needs. After that, one of our consultants will respond promptly to begin the search for the right chef for your team.
2. Understanding YOUR Needs
We don’t just match CVs to job vacancies. Instead, we take the time to understand your venue or business’ specific requirements, culture & expectations PLUS understand the job you require help with. That way, we can provide the best match to your specific needs.
3. Handling the Details
We connect the right chef to the right role and manage the paperwork along the way, including Wages, Payroll tax, PAYG tax, Superannuation or KiwiSaver, WorkCover/ACC and Public Liability Insurance. Meanwhile, you can focus on your kitchen while we take care of the rest.
4. Ongoing Support
Once we place a worker with you, we don’t disappear. Instead, we maintain open and regular communication to make sure everything is running smoothly. From there, we monitor closely the performance of our staff with you and we’re on hand to help plan your next placement when the time comes.
