The Price List and Options for Recruiting a Chef through Book a Chef

1. Agency Pricing
We carry-out the whole recruitment process on your behalf.

Agency Price Calculator. To see how much a chef will cost using this method, simply hover over the hourly rate on their profile. An example of the calculator is shown below:

Basic Hourly Pay Rate This is the rate that the chef states on their profile on the website – the hourly rate for which they would work.
Holiday and Sickness Pay Since the introduction of the Working Time Directive and Statutory Sick Pay for temporary workers, employers are required to make a pro rata payment to cover statutory holidays and sick absences. See “The Working Times Regulations (1998)” and “The Working Time (Amendment) Regulations 2003” . This amount, by law, cannot be added to the chef's pay, but is accrued on the chef's behalf and either paid to them when they take holiday, or when they complete their placement.
Chef's Total Pay The chef's basic pay plus the holiday and sickness pay they receive. Although this is not the rate that the chef receives, it is in effect the amount they are being paid taking into account the money accrued for Holiday and Sickness Pay.
Employer's NIC This is the standard National Insurance Contribution rate payable (12.8%). Class 1 National Insurance Contributions have a threshold of £97 per week (or £420 per month) below which the employer and employee don't have to make any National Insurance Contributions.
Agency Fee Full transparency on charges. No hidden costs. Excellent value for money.
Total Hourly Charge This is the total amount that you, as a client, would be charged per hour for the supply of one of our chefs at the pay rate given in the Basic Pay Rate field. VAT would be added to this charge.
This service is offered under our Client Managed Service terms.
