Hospitality staffing is broken…so we built something different.

For over 20 years I’ve worked within hospitality recruitment.
I’ve seen restaurants desperately searching for chefs on a Friday afternoon.
Hotels paying excessive agency fees because they have no alternative.
Managers spending hours scrolling Facebook groups hoping someone might be available.
WhatsApp messages.
Phone calls.
Last-minute panic.
Sound familiar?
Hospitality has accepted this as normal for far too long. I don’t think it should be.
Technology has transformed almost every industry.
Yet many hospitality businesses are still finding staff in exactly the same way they did fifteen years ago.
That’s why we’ve spent months developing Shift App.
Not another recruitment agency.
Not another CV database.
A hospitality workforce platform built specifically for restaurants, hotels, pubs, bars and venues.
One place where businesses can connect with hospitality professionals quickly, securely and efficiently.
Our vision is simple.
Help hospitality businesses spend less time worrying about staffing…
…and more time looking after their customers.
We’re currently inviting our first Leeds hospitality businesses to join our Founder Programme.
The first 100 businesses receive:
✔ FREE onboarding
✔ FREE Business Membership for 3 months
✔ Direct access to our development team
✔ Opportunity to shape the future of the platform
We’re building this platform with hospitality—not just for hospitality.
If you own or manage a hospitality business in Leeds, I’d love to hear what your biggest staffing challenge is today.
Let’s start the conversation.
