People & talent

Skilled chefs from India, for UK kitchens.

Through Ideal Consulting Solutions, we connect UK hospitality businesses with culinary and operational talent from India.

How it works

Brief. We agree the roles, cuisine, skills and standards your kitchen needs.

Source & screen. Our team in India finds candidates, checks experience and references, and runs practical trade tests.

Select. You interview a shortlist — with our chefs’ view of each candidate’s cooking.

Onboard. We help new team members settle into UK kitchens, standards and service.

A note on visas

Hiring from overseas usually involves the UK Skilled Worker visa route and a sponsor licence, and the rules change from time to time. We’ll guide you through the process, and we always recommend checking current requirements on GOV.UK or with an immigration adviser before you commit.
