Sales + Hospitality Recruitment Specialists | Award-Winning | UK-Wide
Hospitality Recruitment For People Who Actually Turn Up
Chefs, General Managers, Front of House, Events and hospitality sales, at every level. Hotels, restaurants and events businesses.
You don't need another no-show
You've had the CV that looked perfect and the person who lasted two shifts. You've had the Head Chef who was brilliant until service got busy, and the "experienced" GM who'd never actually run a P&L. You've had agencies who clearly don't know the difference between a commis chef and a sous chef, sending you whoever's next on the list.
Hospitality doesn't stop because recruitment went wrong. Covers still need filling. Service still needs running. A bad hire in a kitchen or on the floor doesn't just cost you a wage, it costs you a shift, a team's morale, and sometimes a guest who never comes back.
We recruit across hospitality because we understand the pressure the sector runs under. Tight margins, unsociable hours, seasonal peaks, and a workforce that good operators fight to keep hold of. We're not going to send you someone who looks good on paper and folds the first busy Saturday.

Why hospitality businesses work with us
What we're actually listening for
We won't flood you with CVs from people who've never actually worked a service.
You'll get a small shortlist of people we believe can genuinely do the job, at the level you're hiring for.
We ask direct questions before we put anyone forward, about your rotas, your pace, your culture and what the role really involves day to day, not just what's on the job description. Good hospitality people deserve good employers, and we need to be able to represent your business honestly to them.

"The volume hiring solution has been brilliant as I am targeted on my cost to hire so this has helped my budget. Phillipa is easy to work with and will work outside of a standard 9-5 to accommodate our working hours"
Our Recruitment Process
Step One
Understand You
Before discussing candidates, we'll spend time understanding your business, your culture, your goals and what success looks like in the role.
Sometimes this conversation changes the recruitment strategy completely.
Step Two
Build the right brief
We'll work with you to create a realistic, attractive and commercially strong recruitment brief.
That includes reviewing salary expectations, responsibilities, interview structure and the type of salesperson you're really looking for.
Step Three
Search & Qualify
We don't simply forward CVs and hope that one is good enough to stick, you'll get a handful of highly suitable candidates.
Every shortlisted candidate has been carefully assessed against your requirements, motivations and long-term suitability.
Step Four
Process Support
We'll stay in regular contact throughout interviews, offers, onboarding, and beyond with both you and the candidate.
Clear communication keeps everyone informed and dramatically improves both yours and the candidates experience.
Step Five
Long-term Success
Our relationship doesn't end when someone accepts the offer. We value relationships.
We'll continue supporting both client and candidate to help create a successful long-term placement and lasting, open communication.
