Your route to the peak of hospitality success
Career progression in hospitality has been brought to the forefront recently with the industry being spotlighted for its difficulties during the pandemic. At the onset of the pandemic many staff were furloughed or laid off leading to many leaving the industry often for better conditions and pay. On re-opening businesses have experienced a shortage of staff leading to significant increased need to recruit new staff. In order to encourage this there has been a significant improvement in terms and conditions offered with often enhanced benefits for employees, clearer pathways for career progression opportunities alongside flexibility, increased pay and a better work-life-balance.
To satisfy this increased demand for staff across the industry, it has become clear that there needs to be more support for young talent and that an increased ability to identify new and existing talent within the industry is key. Ginger Hospitality works with education providers and young talent to support those leaving education and looking for their first roles within the industry. We offer support from the ground up and are dedicated to mapping out clear career pathways for our candidates enabling them to discover and achieve their long-term career goals.
“I thought it would be impossible to find a place that could match the amount of love and pride I have in food and hospitality. I can happily say I now have a career in a very highly regarded restaurant, where the food and service are beyond expectations! Thank you so much Craig.”
Working with a recruiter to support your career progression is somewhat unheard of for hospitality professionals. At Ginger we have built our team of consultants around their hospitality knowledge and experience. This provides us with the understanding of what it takes to have a successful career in the industry and what is needed when building robust and talented brigades.
For those aiming towards the peak of hospitality success, Ginger Hospitality partners with a number of prestigious hospitality establishments, including Michelin Starred properties across the UK and are guiding our growing brigade with their route to get there. Through building long-term relationships with our clients and candidates we’re able to take the time to deeply understand the recruitment needs of our clients and help our candidates explore their desired career plans. We provide career long support, not just a job placement. We have made it our mission to invest our time into future talent in order to supply our clients with trusted and experienced hospitality professionals, whether addressing a permanent or temporary assignment.
“I have known Jodie for almost 6 years, during this time she has always put what’s important to me first. Ensured I have been in ongoing work where possible and is always on the end of the phone day/night. During the pandemic Jodie checked on my wellbeing and that of my family going above and beyond to check on my financial status and mental health throughout. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jodie and the team at Ginger if you’re looking for a knowledgeable and professional agency to find you work.”
