Hotel & Pub Rescue has an extensive database of professional General Managers for any unit type, size and rating. A high number of candidates we can propose to yourself have exemplary experience in highly pressurised situations (operational, personnel and financial).

It is true to state that the economy on a regional and national level is volatile, fast paced and complex, competition within all industry sectors is fierce and ever-changing, for any Hospitality business to be successfully operated an effective General Manager needs to be possessive of a myriad of skills that go over and beyond the previous pre-requisite of excellence as a food & beverage operator. Running an internal department is vastly different to running a business.

We will ensure that we fully understand your business in detail and what you exactly require from a prospective general manager, we will only put forward candidates for your consideration that are possessive of all the qualities, experience and skills that you are looking for.

We have a ‘4 stage procedure’ for all GM’s that approach ourselves before we approve them for a clients consideration:

• CV’s are thoroughly checked with all previous employers
• A minimum of 3 up-to-date references are obtained and verified
• A detailed telephone interview is carried out
• Before a candidate is proposed to a client we carry out a 2nd ‘face to face’ intense interview with them that is specific to the client’s requirements & position on offer.

We can rightly state that our client approach and candidate vetting procedure is robust and thorough, all stages carried out by our director who is possessive of 41 exemplary years in Hotels. Our prime directive is to ensure that we only propose candidates to yourself that can run a business effectively in all aspects and in all situations and are possessive of exemplary skills and experience.

It is an unfortunate reality that many hospitality recruitment agencies are owned, managed & staffed by ‘industry inexperienced’ persons, who do not visit yourself & your premises to fully understand your requirements, furthermore, they do not interview their GM candidates in detail ‘face to face’ – these are the vital stages that should be done without fail considering the fees they charge; they therefore cannot justify such candidates to yourself nor their excessive fees for what is a clearly flawed & incomplete process for such a critical position in a business.

Recruitment Agency fees are normally based on 15% to 20% of a GM’s gross salary, a payable fee of between £5250 & £7000 on an average GM salary of £35,000. This is a fee level that is simply unaffordable for many small and medium sized businesses as it represents the greater part of a business units weekly revenue.

Do not choose your GM via the wrong company, are your other professional advisers i.e. accountant & solicitor ‘industry experienced’ ? is your time limited within your business due to other commitments ? is your trade experience limited ? do you need the support of a professional General Manager ? Then its critical for yourself & your business to utilise our skills & experience to ensure you have the perfect candidate with the correct skills for such an important & highly paid position. Let us take away the risk element with our robust processes & procedures in identifying the perfect General Manager, guaranteeing not only a successful conclusion but a highly cost effective one also.

We propose a fixed fee of 7.5%
which we believe is justifiable and fair, making ourselves cost effective & affordable to all clients

Do not delay, call us today, we will find the perfect General Manager for your business
from a process that will be enacted at every stage by industry experts and not the ‘inexperienced’
