I started my career as a relief chef only a few months ago after years of working in numerous kitchens and always wanting to take the leap into agency work. Joining Perfect recruitment made that decision a decision I couldn't regret. The process of joining was so friendly and welcoming and I couldn't wait to get started. Since then Alex, Emily and Liz have been nothing but helpful and are always on the other end of the phone if I ever have a query. I have thoroughly enjoyed the bookings I've had so far and I'm looking forward to having many more in the future.

I joined Perfect Recruitment in 2017 and I'm so glad I did! I have worked with top class chefs in restaurants, prestigious hotels and as far as the French Alps, it's been amazing! They made the process easy and are always at the end of the phone to answer any questions. I wouldn't be the chef I am today without their support, encouragement and the fantastic opportunities. Thank you Perfect Recruitment

Lisa and the team are brilliant! They really do work hard to source engaging and appropriate long term placements. I have primarily dealt with Samantha who has consistently gone above and beyond any expectations providing excellent hospitality opportunities and, more importantly, excellent aftercare to ensure I was settled into my new role and thriving. I would also be remised to mention the excellent service provided by Emily and John-Jo in providing short term placements in the interim. All in, a great service and a great company, highly recommended.

Excellent chef agency, been on and off with them for about 4 years. Always well looked after and kept in work, always a minimum of 40 hours and plenty more if you want them.
