Gladstone Park Chefs connects hospitality businesses across the UK with skilled kitchen and front-of-house professionals. From commis chefs to executive heads, we find the people who make your service exceptional.
From the pass to the dining room, we recruit across every level of hospitality - placing professionals who take genuine pride in their craft.
We do not send you a pile of CVs and wait. We take the time to understand your kitchen, your standards and exactly who you need.
Share your requirements, your kitchen environment, the team culture and what good looks like. The more detail you give us, the stronger the match we make.
We draw on our active network of culinary professionals and head-hunt where needed. Every candidate is interviewed and assessed before you see a single CV.
We present a tight shortlist of genuinely suitable candidates with full write-ups. We coordinate trials, interviews and offers - you choose who joins your team.
Most generalist agencies do not understand what makes a great chef or how a professional kitchen actually operates. We do. Our consultants have worked in and around hospitality their entire careers.
That depth of knowledge means we assess candidates properly, filter out the time-wasters and present people who will actually thrive in your environment - not just interview well.
"We had been trying to find a Head Chef for three months with no luck. Gladstone Park understood exactly what we needed and placed someone outstanding within a fortnight. Excellent service."
"The quality of candidates they sent us was genuinely impressive. You could tell they had actually spoken to them properly and understood our standards. We made two permanent hires and both are still with us."
"We use Gladstone Park for all our temporary chef cover now. Fast, reliable and the chefs they send know what they are doing. It has taken a lot of the stress out of managing our kitchen rota."
