Specialist practice

Hospitality & Tourism Recruitment

Guests notice the people before they notice the building. We recruit managers and specialists for hotel groups, restaurant operators and tourism businesses, from the kitchen and front office to revenue, sales and the general manager's office.

We'll ask about your property or concept, your guests and your season, because a revenue manager for a beach resort and one for a city business hotel are different hires. We look for people who know this region's guests and its busy months, and who will fit the way your team already works.

How we can help

Permanent recruitment

You're hiring for the long term. We find, vet and introduce people, and you employ them directly.

Executive search

For director and head-of roles we run a confidential search and approach people who aren't on the market.

Contract hiring

You need someone for a fixed period, to cover a gap or see a programme through. We find and introduce them, and you employ them on a fixed-term contract.

Project-based hiring

A new contract or tender means several hires at once. We plan the roles and timing with you and fill them together. Everyone we introduce joins your payroll, not ours.

You employ the people we introduce. Whether the role is permanent, fixed-term or part of a project, the person joins your company and your payroll. We don't employ, sponsor or second staff ourselves.

For hospitality and tourism professionals

If you work in hospitality and tourism and you're thinking about your next move in the Gulf, send us your CV. We'll tell you honestly about the roles we're working on and where you'd fit, and we'll only put you forward with your agreement. We never charge candidates a fee.
