About HirePro

We help Cape Town venues find good staff.

HirePro helps Cape Town restaurants, hotels and caterers hire staff. Book waiters, bartenders and chefs by the hour, or find someone to hire permanently. We also help hospitality workers find shifts that fit their week.

Why we started

Why we started HirePro

Daniel Nel and Samantha Nel started HirePro in Cape Town in 2025. They saw the same problem from both sides. Venues could not find reliable staff at short notice. Good waiters, bartenders and chefs had no fair, steady way to find work.

Traditional recruitment is slow and often charges a placement fee. WhatsApp groups are quick, but you don't know who you are getting. We wanted something in between: checked people, clear prices and fast booking.

We want good work to be noticed. Reliable staff should get booked again, and venues should know who is coming.

What we do

What HirePro does

We help businesses book shift staff, hire permanent staff and find services. Here is how each part works.

Shift staffing

Book waiters, bartenders, chefs and event staff by the hour. You choose the person from real profiles. Available in 11 areas of the Western Cape.

Vetted staff

Two people on our team review each applicant. We check ID, interview them and call references before anyone can be booked.

Permanent hiring and services

Browse candidates anywhere in South Africa and pay R200 for a candidate's contact details, with no placement fee. We also list services venues need, like extraction cleaning, gas, refrigeration and coffee machine repairs.

Clear prices and pay

Businesses see the full price before they book. Staff see the pay before they accept, and are paid every Tuesday.

How we work

Four things we stick to

01

We check everyone

We read every CV, interview each applicant and call their references. We decide which roles each person can work.

02

Fair on both sides

Staff see the pay before they accept. Businesses see the price before they book. We check businesses as well as staff.

03

Made for how service works

Plans change fast in hospitality. Staff reconfirm before the shift and check in when they arrive. If someone drops out, we offer the shift to other staff nearby.

04

Good work gets noticed

Every shift and rating goes on the staff member's record, so reliable people get booked again.
