Good Chefs as your partner

Good Chefs
At Good Chefs, we believe in quality, reliability and a personal approach. What sets us apart is that both founders, Stan Burgman and Erik Hilgers, spent years working as freelance chefs themselves. That experience is still at the heart of our company. We understand better than anyone what goes on in the kitchen and in the world of freelance hospitality.
We have since grown into a leading staffing agency with more than 250 active chefs across the Netherlands. Alongside chef placement, we also deliver complete culinary productions, events and high-end catering. We work with top restaurants, food concepts, weddings and corporate events, and operate both nationally and internationally.
We actively build lasting partnerships with wedding planners and event venues. Thanks to our experience and flexibility, we can take the entire culinary operation off your hands, from concept and purchasing through to execution and aftercare. Together, we create a flawless and flavourful experience.
We continue to support, guide and train chefs. We now also offer opportunities for kitchen porters, commis chefs, hosts and other hospitality professionals. With our strong network, eye for detail and focus on long-term partnerships, we are a reliable partner for clients and freelancers alike. Together, we are building the new standard in hospitality staffing.
