BUILT WITH HOSPITALITY LEADERS

We’re rewriting how hiring is done in hospitality.

Systems made for HR not busy operation managers, too much guesswork, too much time spent trying to see who the candidate really is and if they would thrive in the team.

A better way to understand your team, find the right people quickly and easily, help great employees want to stay, and create workplaces where people can belong and grow.

We’ve built the first part – the candidate platform – of that path through hundreds of conversations with hospitality professionals, leaders and hospitality tech founders. Now we’re turning what we’ve learned into a new way forward.

Want to help build it? Come with us.
Need help now? HeyVar is here for that too.

Recruitment

Finding the right people for your team, whether you’re hiring for a seasonal role in a hotel or restaurant, a full time position, or building a team in hospitality tech, from sourcing and interviews through to a successful hire.

Who This Is For

Hospitality, travel and technology teams that need hands-on support finding and hiring the right people, whether you need help with one important hire or a larger recruitment push.

How We Help

  • We listen first, to understand the role, the team and where the friction actually lives before we start looking for candidates.
  • We build a recruitment process around the reality of your team, including sourcing, screening, interviews and candidate communication.
  • We stay close to the process through to the hire, because a successful recruitment process is about more than getting someone to say yes.
  • Every candidate is ensured an update with wait time no more than 14 days — ever.

Solutions We Bring

  • Full recruitment support
  • Targeted candidate sourcing and outreach
  • Screening and candidate assessment
  • Interview process design and support
  • Hiring manager support
  • Candidate communication and experience

Employee Branding

Helping you communicate and brand what it is really like to work with you, so the right people want to join.

Who This Is For

Companies that know their employee experience is part of their recruitment strategy, but need help turning what makes them different into something candidates can actually see, understand and believe.

How We Help

  • We help you look past the polished version of your company and find what is actually true about working there.
  • We turn your culture, values and employee experience into clear messaging that makes sense to candidates and current employees.
  • We connect your employee brand to the hiring journey, so what someone sees in a job ad matches what they experience once they join.

Solutions We Bring

  • Employee value proposition development
  • Employer and employee brand messaging
  • Job ad and careers page messaging
  • Social media templates for hiring
  • Candidate journey review
  • Employee experience storytelling
  • Recruitment content and communication

Onboarding

Creating an onboarding experience that helps new employees feel welcome, prepared and part of the team.

Who This Is For

Teams that are good at making the hire, but know the first weeks and months need more structure. Especially growing teams where onboarding has started to become something everyone assumes someone else is handling.

How We Help

  • We look at what happens from the moment someone accepts the offer through their first weeks and months, and find where people are being left to figure things out themselves.
  • I build practical onboarding that gives new hires clarity around their role, expectations, people and ways of working.
  • We make sure onboarding connects back to the culture and values you said mattered during the hiring process.

Solutions We Bring

  • Onboarding journey design
  • 30, 60 and 90 day structures
  • New hire checklists and resources
  • Manager onboarding guidance
  • Role and expectation frameworks
  • Culture and values integration

Fractional Leadership

Bring in experienced People, Culture or Business Development leadership when you need it, without a full time hire.

Who This Is For

Founders and growing hospitality, travel and technology teams that need someone experienced to take ownership, build the foundation and get things moving without creating another permanent layer of overhead.

How We Help

  • We come in to understand what is actually happening before deciding what needs fixing. Sometimes that means People and Culture. Sometimes it means Business Development. Often the two are more connected than they look.
  • I don’t just advise. I build, execute and work alongside your team to create something that actually gets used.
  • We don’t create dependency. I transfer the knowledge, build the foundation with your team and leave you stronger than I found you.

Solutions We Bring

  • Fractional Head of People and Culture
  • Fractional Head of Business Development
  • People strategy and hiring infrastructure
  • Pipeline and outreach strategy
  • Founder support and execution
  • Team and process development

Training & Workshops

Practical training for managers and teams on hiring, interviewing, culture and working with people.

Who This Is For

Teams that want their people to feel more confident doing the work themselves, whether that is interviewing candidates, giving feedback, talking about values or creating a better experience for the people they manage.

How We Help

  • We start with what your team actually needs to be better at, rather than bringing in a generic training deck.
  • We make the sessions practical, with real situations and interactive learnings, examples and tools people can use as soon as they leave the room.
  • We focus on building confidence and capability inside the team, so the learning does not disappear when the workshop ends.

Solutions We Bring

  • Structured interviewing training
  • Bias awareness and hiring decisions
  • Hiring manager training
  • Culture and values workshops
  • Manager and leadership workshops
  • Custom team sessions

Culture & Values

Turning your values into everyday behaviors that shape how your team works, hires and grows.

Who This Is For

Teams that have values written down somewhere, but want those values to actually mean something on an ordinary Tuesday afternoon.

How We Help

  • We sit down with your team and find the values that are already there, the ones showing up in how people treat each other, make decisions and get work done.
  • We turn those values into behaviors people can recognize and talk about, rather than words that sound good in a deck.
  • We connect your values to hiring, job ads, interviews and onboarding, so candidates understand what they mean before they ever step into the lobby.

Solutions We Bring

  • Values discovery and definition
  • Behavioral values frameworks
  • Culture workshops
  • Values based hiring
  • Job ad and interview alignment
  • Culture integration into onboarding
