Key Responsibilities :

• Partner with restaurant clients to understand their hiring needs, company culture, and job requirements.
• Source and attract top talent through various channels, including job boards, social media, networking, and referrals.
• Screen and interview candidates to assess their skills, experience, and cultural fit for restaurant management roles.
• Manage the full recruitment lifecycle, from initial contact to offer negotiation and onboarding.

What We Seek

• In the words of Joe Dispenza, we are running an Olympic-level team. If you can't be competent, accountable, or on purpose—it's not personal, we have to cut you because we're moving at a fast pace. We seek Olympians!
• A high-energy, hard-working SELF-STARTER who enjoys autonomy and doesn't require daily instruction to provide real results yet is open to coaching and feedback; if you tend to procrastinate, unfortunately, this job is not for you.
• A fearless warrior on the battlefield—if you were a GOT character you would be Brienne of Tarth or The Hound.
• Someone who is candid, takes assertive fast action (you play more offense than defense), and has immense integrity.
• You take full responsibility and find solutions to problems; you don't have a habit of making excuses or blaming others; you are highly disciplined and self-accountable.
• A people person who loves talking on the phone, texting, and emailing candidates and clients all day.
• You go above and beyond for yourself, your co-workers, your candidates, and your clients. If you're not a giver, please do not apply.
• 2-5 years experience at a Recruitment Agency is preferred. Exclusively focused on Contingency and Retained Management, Corporate Office, Hourly & Executive Searches
• Strong connections and experience in the hospitality, hotel, and restaurant industry

What We Provide

• A fun, epic, and supportive team structure and environment (zero toxic culture here) where everyone celebrates each others' wins!
• Large, established book of business, you can work on job orders on day one. The clients are already closed—all that is required is for you to source and interview job seekers over the phone or Zoom for positions at different companies and ensure they get placed. This requires people skills, negotiation skills, and the ability to influence others.
• Warm Inbound Leads + Immediate Contracts & Recruiting Job Orders to work on.
• Epic technology, resources and most importantly recruiting for the best brands in the space!
• Powerful tools, software, training, and support to grow in your profession

Working with us is not for everyone! We're on a mission to cut turnover in the hospitality industry in half and help thousands of restaurants and hotels scale their business operations. This is no small feat, and will only be possible with the right kind of team members. And we're not just looking for skills and experience. Having shared values is just as important.
