Hiring in house? Here’s when a staffing partner still makes sense
Keep building your own team. We’ll help with your reserves
You’ve advertised for a chef. You’re speaking to candidates. You want to find someone who’s right for your kitchen.
But Friday service is still happening, whether you’ve made that hire or not.
That’s the gap Crew Haus helps with.
You don’t have to rush the hire
When a role is sitting open, the pressure lands on the people already there.
Your head chef covers another section. Someone stays late. A manager starts rearranging the roster to get through the weekend.
For a shift or two, you can make it work. For weeks, it takes a toll on the team and the service.
We can provide experienced kitchen or floor staff while you continue hiring in house. You stay in control of who joins your permanent team, and your current team gets the support it needs now.
Use us when the roster needs it
That might be two chef shifts next week while you interview. It might be a food runner every Saturday while trade picks up. Or it might be cover when someone calls in sick.
There’s no need to commit to an ongoing roster to ask us for help with one shift.
If someone works well in your venue, you can request them again. That gives you a familiar person to call on the next time there’s a gap.
Tell us what the shift actually needs
A chef who can run a section through a busy dinner service is different from someone you need for prep. The same goes for a section waiter and a food runner.
Tell us the role, dates, hours and what the person needs to be confident doing. We’ll check who is suitable and available, then talk you through the option before confirming the shift.
Build the team you want. Get through the week in front of you.
Hiring in house and using Crew Haus can work together.
If you’ve got a gap coming up, send us the details. We’ll let you know whether we have the right person to cover it.
