DISH Hospitality Recruitment connects exceptional talent with the UK's best hospitality businesses, whether you're filling a kitchen role, a front-of-house position, or a head-office function.
A UK hospitality recruiter with real industry roots. Built on relationships, not databases.
DISH is led by Eddy Nuttall, an award-winning chef, former restaurant owner, and recruiter with 30+ years in the industry. We've interviewed hundreds of candidates and learned exactly what separates someone who looks right on paper from someone who actually delivers under pressure. That knowledge doesn't come from a recruitment course; it comes from three decades of working in, building, and running hospitality businesses. That experience is what we bring to every brief: we don't just fill vacancies; we find the people who will actually make a difference.
Whether you run the pass or want a place on it, we make the next step simple.
Chefs, kitchen management, front-of-house and head-office functions, sourced discreetly and matched for the long term.
50+ vetted professionals available every week. Event staff, seasonal brigades and emergency cover, often same-week, sometimes same-day.
DBS-compliant staffing available for all sectors, plus health & safety support via our Dinesafe partnership.
No portals, no ticket queues. Tell us what you need and we handle the rest.
Role, dates, covers, rate. A two-minute form or a phone call, and we come back to you fast with no unnecessary admin.
We shortlist from 4,000+ vetted candidates and actively headhunt people who are not on job boards. References, right-to-work and skills are checked before you ever see a CV.
Your staff arrive briefed and ready. One invoice, one point of contact, and a check-in after every placement.
Most agencies know recruitment. We know hospitality.
