About Us


Hospitality-Focused Talent Specialists

We are more than just another Hospitality Recruiting Agency


At Restaurant Recruiter Guy, we stand out by combining firsthand industry experience with a deep understanding of the unique dynamics of the restaurant and hospitality sectors. As a former restaurant executive turned recruiter, our founder knows the intricacies of operations, leadership challenges, and the qualities that make a great team member. This insider knowledge enables us to approach recruitment with an unmatched perspective that goes beyond simply matching resumes to job descriptions—we focus on aligning goals, values, and cultural fit to ensure long-term success.


We pride ourselves on offering a highly personalized and hands-on approach, treating every client and candidate as an individual with specific needs and career aspirations. Unlike larger recruiting firms that may rely heavily on automated processes and generic strategies, we build strong relationships and maintain open communication throughout the recruitment journey. This dedication to personalized service results in more meaningful matches and higher retention rates, benefiting both employers and candidates alike.


Our specialization exclusively in U.S. restaurant and hotel operations means that we’re not trying to be everything to everyone—we’re laser-focused on one industry and one region. This allows us to stay updated on market trends, operational challenges, and evolving demands within hospitality. We don’t just provide staffing solutions; we act as strategic partners who support the growth and success of your business through customized talent solutions that truly make a difference.
