Executive Search for the Hospitality Industry
Hospitality for us has always been a lifestyle, not a job or career. It’s a way of treating and caring for people beyond what’s expected. It’s how you welcome your friends and family, what you cook, what wine you pour and the spirited conversations you have. Yes, executive search is a vehicle by which we listen and learn about leaders in our industry, and if we’re fortunate enough can become a small part of their journey. But at the end of the day, it comes down to how we treat each other.

“I’ve had the pleasure to get to know Josh better than any other executive recruiter I’ve worked with, both as a candidate and a client. Josh expertly approaches executive search unlike anyone in the industry, in equal parts as art and science. He connects both with organizations and candidates at a (much) deeper level, asks the tough questions, prepares both sides for productive and efficient conversations, and delivers the right matches in record time. Above all, he cares more than anyone I know to ‘get it right’ and create a ‘win win’ for everyone involved.”

“I had the pleasure of getting recruited by Josh for my current role, as Chief Commercial Officer. Throughout the entire process, Josh has been very communicative and personable. He always kept me updated on any developments in the process and helped me to be adequately prepared for all interviews. His personable and passionate approach was amazing and like nothing I had ever experienced in the past. I can only say that this was by far the best recruitment process I have gone through. Josh is the BEST!”

Leading Values
Heartfelt Human Recruiting
“We recruit from the heart. We listen to our clients’ needs and understand our candidates’ ambitions. This, coupled with our ‘students of the industry’ approach, allows us to match the right executive with the right opportunity at the right time.”
The “Artful” Side of Human Capital
“We believe anything can be raised to an art form. Human capital management is certainly no different. We focus on crafting relationships with purpose and curating bonds, not transactions.”
Make it Personal
“We continue to be inspired by the innovation and creativity in our industry. Our goal is to match that with our passion for making a difference. We take this work personally, and it shows.”
Always Think Differently
“In today’s business environment, we know the resume is only a fraction of the full picture. We take a different approach. Of course, we qualify the deep skill set and historical success, but THEN we go to work.”
