Members Club Recruitment in London
Members clubs hold their staff to the highest standards of discretion, service and consistency. Finding permanent professionals who understand that expectation and embrace it takes a recruiter who can identify the right character, not just the right CV.

Cookaburra recruits permanent staff for London's members clubs and private venues, placing managers and senior hospitality professionals who understand the expectations of a membership audience and deliver the kind of service that justifies the investment.
Cookaburra is a London hospitality recruitment agency founded by someone who has worked the industry from the ground up, starting as a dishwasher in Perth at 16, through to Michelin-starred kitchens in London. Every placement is permanent, and every recommendation is personal.
We don't fill seats. We find people who fit.
The SHRM Workforce Research (2023) found that 68 per cent of hospitality workers leave within their first year. A bad hire costs up to three times the role's annual salary, and key positions in London sit unfilled for an average of six weeks. Permanent recruitment, done well, solves all three problems at once.
