How ChefMatch Works

For Restaurants & Businesses

Flexible, fast, and reliable. Fill shifts without the hassle of agencies. No Credits needed.

• 1. Create a business account

  Sign up with your business details. You can post jobs as soon as your account is set up.

• 2. Post a job

  Add the role, dates, location (area only for chef privacy), and how many chefs you need. Single or multiple chefs per shift.

• 3. Review applications

  Chefs apply using their Credits. Review profiles and experience, then choose who fits best.

• 4. Select chefs

  Accept the chefs you want. They receive full job details and can confirm. You see who is confirmed before the shift.

• 5. Chefs complete the shift

  On the day, your chefs show up. You run the shift as you normally would. Payment for work is between you and the chef.

• 6. Duplicate for repeat shifts

  Need the same shift again? Use Duplicate Job to copy it to tomorrow, next week, or any date. Fresh applications each time.

• 7. Ratings and reviews

  After the shift, leave a rating and review. It helps other businesses and helps chefs build their reputation.

Restaurants do not use Credits. Chefs apply to your jobs using their Credits. Payment for work is between you and the chef.

For Chefs

You stay in control. Browse jobs, apply with Credits, get selected by restaurants. Credits only used when you are chosen.

  Buy Credits or earn them free by referring chefs and restaurants. 1 Credit per day of job—e.g. a 3-day shift costs 3 Credits.
