Starting salaryPKR 35,000 per month
Male home cooks for everyday family meals and a well-organised kitchen.
These starting salaries are for customers hiring staff. They are not fixed quotes or advertised vacancies. The agreed salary depends on duties, experience, hours and living arrangements. Confirm the current amount, applicable employment requirements, candidate availability and written terms before hiring. Part-time hours and specialist care need an individual quote. Repairs, skilled trades and event assignments are priced separately by scope; confirm charges, materials and applicable service terms before booking.
One-time placement fee
For monthly staff placements: equal to one agreed monthly salary, payable once you hire. Separate from the staff member’s salary.
Monthly salary
Paid directly to the staff member. No recurring agency commission.
Replacement support
Monthly staff placements include six months of replacement support under the written conditions. Confirm the procedure and eligibility before hiring.
Arrangements
Monthly placements with agreed full-time, live-in, live-out or part-time hours, subject to the role and availability.
Service area
Islamabad and Rawalpindi only. Share your sector, neighbourhood or society phase when enquiring.
Budget example: if the agreed monthly salary is PKR 35,000, one full month’s salary plus the one-time placement fee totals PKR 70,000. This example excludes any separately agreed expenses and is not a payment schedule.
To request staff, share the role, area, main responsibilities, working hours and preferred start date. Enquiring is free; a placement and start date are confirmed after discussion. This contact is for customers hiring staff, not employment applications.
For a male home cook in Bahria Town, call 0334 1041114. Share your block, duties and hours so we can discuss current candidates. The one-time placement fee equals one month’s agreed salary; six-month replacement support follows the written conditions.
Specify the phase before comparing cook arrangements
A Bahria Town cook request should state phase, block, meal times and whether the cook will live in or travel daily. Do not use a previous placement in another phase as proof that the same journey will work for your household. Discuss the specific address before settling an early breakfast or late dinner shift.
Tell the team whether you need one continuous working period or separate morning and evening visits. Split shifts create additional travel and should be discussed openly. A live-in arrangement may suit some routines, but accommodation, finishing time and days off still need clear agreement.
Build meals around pickups and family commitments
If school collection and office returns happen at different times, explain which meals must be freshly prepared and which can be prepared ahead. This helps the cook plan without being expected to stay indefinitely whenever someone is delayed. Agree how changes will be communicated during the day.
For packed lunches, list the preparation deadline, preferred foods and containers. Separate children’s preferences from any professionally advised dietary requirements. A sample weekday plan allows a candidate to estimate the real workload more accurately than simply counting three meals, especially when family members eat at different times.
Review portions before increasing the menu
Start with a manageable set of dishes and agree portion sizes for the number of diners. After several days, discuss what was left over and what ran short. This is a practical way to improve consistency without changing recipes, quantity and serving time all at once.
If visitors are frequent, define what counts as a normal household meal and when extra preparation is needed. Shopping, serving and washing up should each have an owner. Use our cook interview guide to check food handling and organisation, and ask the team to confirm the written fee and replacement conditions before placement.
