Finding a butcher with Jobby

  • Why searching takes time. A butcher must debone, cut, and prepare with precision and speed, and also serve customers in a butcher shop or fresh food department. That craftsmanship requires years of experience, and those who master it are rarely actively looking. On JobFunders, there are 200+ vacancies open for butchers in Flanders (surveyed in September 2026): you are therefore competing with many other employers for the same people.
  • Typical regimes. Day shifts with an early start, Saturday work in shops and fresh food departments of supermarkets, and shifts in meat processing companies.
  • This is how Jobby helps. Jobby searches talent pools of 260,000+ profiles 24/7 and also activates passive candidates who do not respond to vacancies. The first SMS invitations are sent within 2 minutes of activation; you will see your first candidates within 48 hours. If you are looking for someone for the counter, set "customer contact" as a must-have; if you are looking for someone for production, "experience with deboning" is particularly important. Jobby screens based on what you set, so you do not have to sift through CVs that do not fit the workplace.
  • Minimum wage. The applicable minimum wage depends on your company's joint committee. You can find the amounts in the Minimum wage database of the FPS Employment.
  • Fair price. An annual subscription of €1,500 (Solo) to €6,000 (Scale) with a match guarantee, or €100 per approved candidate. A free ATS is included and there are no selection fees.
  • And compared to interim? As a market average, a traditional interim agency charges a coefficient of approximately 2.10 on the gross salary for the duration of the interim period. If you still wish to start on an interim basis, Jobby finds and screens the candidate, and you work via payroll for an interim partner at a market-average coefficient of approximately 1.60. These are estimates: adjust them with your figures in the recruitment cost calculator. If you need butchers who can be deployed immediately at very short notice, an interim agency can be the right choice.
