Don’t just take our word for it...

I try not to need agency cover in my restaurant, however with half term being spread over two weeks. And not enough casual staff to stretch, in the last two weeks I’ve used some amazing bar staff and a fabulous chef from AB talent! I normally begrudge using team that don’t know our business or ways of working, but I have to say all the team that have come in haven’t been afraid to jump straight in, learning our tills, systems, ways of working, and getting stuck into every task requested of them! Thank you so much Marc and AB talent for helping me during an extremely busy time! You will always be my first port of call from now on!

AB Talent have been fantastically organised and efficient with any and all requests I’ve had since being with Manor By The Lake, with strong and experienced staff that have always met my requirements.

I highly recommend AB Talent – wonderful, hardworking, and friendly staff that are always willing to go above and beyond. Very flexible with hours and last-minute requests. Every team member we have been sent has been polite and professional – 100% recommend for any business!!
It has been a pleasure working with Marc from AB Talent, and the staff he has supplied. There is good regular communication, and we appreciate that Marc checks in regularly on how his staff are getting on. The quality of work from his team is also to a good standard and they fit in well with our team.

AB Talent have been great to work with over the last 6 months. A seamless and proactive service offered by Marc that has complemented our ethos as a business that has allowed us to operate at the highest level.
As an agency chef for many years I have known Marc for a long time. What I really like about working for Marc is that I get top pay and I am sent to places that are of a good standard. I highly recommend that you consider AB Talent if you are serious about making really good money and would like to have the opportunity for good work life balance.
I have nothing but positive things to say about AB Talent. Every job placement has been as quoted. The work is good and paid well. Marc is very pleasant and easy to work with. If I ever have a query or need to speak to him, he is always available on the phone or replies in a timely manner, with a positive response. I’d certainly recommend any chef looking for temporary contract work to register with AB Talent.
AB Talent is a great hospitality recruitment agency. Nothing is too much for them! Whether your working home or away, and have any questions or problems AB Talent are on-hand to sort it out straight away! All the jobs I’ve been placed in have been exactly as expected down to the last detail. I’ve benefitted from great rates of pay, very good communication and I get paid every Friday. I’ve had no issues with payment, AB Talent use PAYE, which is a better choice for my situation. The best thing with AB Talent is you can get holiday and sick pay unlike most agencies out there. I’ve worked with AB Talent from the beginning and the company is growing rapidly with more and more chefs joining each week.

I have worked with Marc as both a client and a candidate and he consistently provides excellent service, from our initial meeting through to catch ups and regular contact, he has really got to know me and my situation as well as what I require from my team. Marc is my first point of call if I am looking for a new role or I need support in my kitchen and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him.
