FIRE Group Wins Major DBS Catering Contracts – Now Recruiting Chefs & Catering Staff Across London and the South

Flexible Monday-to-Friday Catering Opportunities Now Available

FIRE Group is delighted to announce further growth within its DBS Catering division, following the recent award of major new catering contracts. With exciting projects now being mobilised across London and the South of England, FIRE Group is actively recruiting chefs, cooks, catering assistants, kitchen porters and wider catering staff to join its growing teams.

Recruitment is already underway, with FIRE Group's experienced team actively sourcing, screening and project-managing catering professionals to ensure the right people are in place for each contract.

With many of these opportunities centred around daytime, Monday-to-Friday work, they could offer a welcome change for hospitality professionals looking for greater flexibility and a better work-life balance.

DBS Catering Jobs With Flexible Hours

Not everyone wants — or needs — to work five days a week.

That's why FIRE Group offers flexible opportunities designed around your availability.

Depending on the project and your experience, you could be looking for:

One shift a week
Regular part-time shifts
Several days per week
Full-time Monday-to-Friday hours
Ongoing temporary work
Temp-to-permanent opportunities
Longer-term catering positions

Whether you're looking to supplement your existing income, return to catering, reduce your working hours or secure a consistent full-time role, FIRE Group wants to hear from you.

Chefs Wanted in London, Southampton and Across the South

FIRE Group is particularly interested in hearing from experienced catering professionals across London, Southampton and the wider South of England.

Current and upcoming opportunities can include:

Head Chefs • Sous Chefs • Chef de Partie • Commis Chefs • Cooks • Catering Assistants • Kitchen Porters • Catering Supervisors • Catering Managers

Experience in contract catering, education, healthcare, hospitality, restaurants, hotels or high-volume kitchens can be valuable for these positions.

For DBS catering assignments, safeguarding and compliance are also a key part of the recruitment process. FIRE Group supports candidates through the relevant recruitment and DBS requirements, helping ensure staff are appropriately vetted for the environments in which they work.

Why Choose FIRE Group?

Working in hospitality doesn't always mean working evenings, weekends and unsociable hours.

These new DBS catering contracts offer opportunities for professionals looking for more predictable daytime work, particularly those who value a Monday-to-Friday schedule.

FIRE Group's recruitment team works closely with candidates to understand their:

Experience
Location
Availability
Preferred working hours
Skills and qualifications
Type of catering environment
Long-term career goals

This means you can tell us exactly what you're looking for — from one shift a week to full-time employment.

Our team then works to match suitable candidates with available opportunities as projects progress.

A Great Opportunity for Experienced Hospitality Professionals

If you've spent years working in restaurants, hotels, contract catering, education, healthcare or other hospitality environments, these new opportunities could provide a fresh direction for your career.

For chefs in particular, Monday-to-Friday daytime work can provide a significant change from traditional hospitality schedules.

It can mean more predictable evenings, more consistent working patterns and the ability to build your working week around your personal commitments.

And if you're not looking for full-time hours, that's fine too.

One shift a week can be the starting point.

Our teams in Southampton and London are working on recruitment and project management across the South, with opportunities developing as new projects become operational.
