About Rhubarb Recruitment
Since 2001, Rhubarb Recruitment has been the hospitality industry's trusted partner in connecting exceptional talent with outstanding opportunities. With over 24 years of specialist experience, we've successfully placed hundreds of professionals into permanent positions across the UK - from Scotland to Cornwall.
We're not just recruiters - we're hospitality specialists who understand what it takes to succeed in this dynamic industry. Whether you're a Head Chef looking for your next challenge, a Restaurant Manager ready to step up, or a skilled bartender seeking a better opportunity, we have the expertise and connections to match you with the perfect role.
Our diverse client base includes independent restaurants, boutique hotels, international hotel chains, food-led pubs, outside catering firms, and even private households (including the occasional royal client!). We recruit across all hospitality departments: senior management, kitchen and restaurant teams, bar staff, back office roles, sales positions, and facilities management.
Our culture
Built on age-old principles of good business practice, we believe in honesty, transparency, and delivering what we promise. Unlike agencies that overpromise, we'll be upfront if we can't help - but when we say we can, you can count on us.
Our team of specialist consultants takes the time to truly understand you - your skills, aspirations, and what matters most in your next role. We don't just match CVs to job descriptions; we match people to opportunities where they'll thrive.
Professional yet approachable, we're available 24/7 because we know hospitality doesn't work 9-5. From your first call to your first day (and beyond), we're with you every step of the way.
