We are not a caterer: we strengthen your caterer's service team. Our staff follow your caterer's instructions, know the running order of the evening and know how to stay out of sight during the speeches. We select people who are comfortable with tray service, well presented and attentive to guests.

Walking dinners, internal launches and client evenings: smooth tray service that lets your guests enjoy the evening.
Galas and official dinners: polished service that respects protocol and the pace of the evening.
Company parties and team days: energetic extra service staff to keep the atmosphere going right to the end.
Event catering staff look after service at your cocktail parties, banquets and receptions: they circulate trays, serve courses, run the bar and keep the room clear. They do not prepare the food. They strengthen your caterer's front-of-house team, so service stays smooth even as guest numbers grow.
Protéine is not a caterer. Our business is event staffing: we provide event catering staff in Brussels and beyond, selected for their smart presentation, their attentiveness to guests and their languages. Since 1996, we have supported more than 25,000 events in Brussels and across Belgium.
Their tasks depend on the format of your event:
During speeches and key moments, the team also knows how to fade into the background: service pauses and resumes at exactly the right time.
This is the most common scenario: you already have a caterer, but you need more hands for service. Your Protéine coordinator contacts the caterer if needed to agree on the type of service, timings, back-of-house set-up and any specific instructions.
On the day, our teams follow the caterer's instructions for everything relating to food and drinks, and our coordinator's instructions for everything else. Needs are passed on in real time: a missing tray, a table to be laid, a guest who needs particular attention.
A launch reception, an end-of-year gala and a conference banquet each call for a different kind of service. We match the profiles to the format:
In Brussels, a single reception often brings together French-speaking, Dutch-speaking and international guests. Our service teams speak French, Dutch and English: they can introduce a dish, answer a question about allergies by passing on the caterer's information, or direct a guest, in their own language. For a reception hosted by a European institution or a conference dinner, that detail matters.
The right number depends on the service format, the length of the event and the layout of the venue. A standing cocktail reception does not need the same team as a seated dinner with table service, and a venue spread over several floors needs more people than a single room. Your caterer will often have a recommendation: we use it as a starting point and fine-tune it with you during the briefing.
You then receive a free, no-obligation quote within 24 business hours.
Every team receives a protocol briefing 24 to 48 hours before the event: running order, type of service, timings, dress code, special guests and the caterer's instructions. The service outfit is agreed with you, and accessories can match your brand colours thanks to our Mix & Match system. On the day, a dedicated coordinator stays on site or is reachable at any time.
A community of more than 1,900 hosts, hostesses and stewards from which we choose people who are at ease with front-of-house service. You can build a list of preferred profiles so you have the same team at every event.
