We know the stress of last-minute shift changes, no-shows, and constant staff turnover — because we’ve lived it.
HirePro started in the kitchens and front-of-house floors of Cape Town’s top restaurants. I’m Daniel, a classically trained chef who’s worked everywhere from world-renowned Top 100 restaurants to international steakhouses. And no matter how great the food or service, there was always one issue that never went away: broken staffing.
Good people were overworked, underpaid, and constantly stretched thin. Managers were left scrambling — frustrated, burnt out, and out of options. I knew there had to be a better way. So I started building one.
And then Sam — my wife and co-founder — brought the magic that was missing. With her background in wellness and her passion for people, she made sure this wasn’t just another platform. She reminded us that this is about humans — not just shifts and schedules.
Together, we created HirePro to bridge the gap between staff and establishments in a smarter, fairer way. One that values trust, communication, and dignity.
If you’re running a restaurant, hotel, or venue and need reliable, pre-vetted staff — we’ve got you. If you’re a hospitality pro looking for flexible work that respects your time and talent — welcome home.
HirePro is more than just staffing. It’s our way of fixing what’s broken in the industry we love.
