Off to Work

You go the extra mile to get things just right for your guests.

So it's only right that we go the extra mile to give you exactly what you need.

Take our fixed-term staffing offer: Team Alliance

Sometimes you need the consistency of a regular team member, but a permanent hire isn't a viable option.

Maternity cover or stepping into the role of someone off sick.

A special project requires extra resources.

Or even a seasonal uptick in business - if the British summer ever decides to arrive 🙈☔

Consistency, with flexibility.

Here's a quick tip if you're wanting to make your job search less overwhelming:

Instead of relying on your email inbox to find job details, try establishing a systematic approach to track your applications ✅

How? A Kanban board can be a great way of visually tracking where you're at with different job applications.

This can be a simple as post-it notes on a wall or in a notebook. Move each post-it through different stages of the recruitment process as you advance.

Prefer digital? There are plenty of free apps available to build your own digital Kanban board.

✅ Easy to implement
✍📱 As simple or detailed as you need it to be
😨 No more panic when you're called by a company and can't remember applying

Do you have a system in place for managing job applications?

We only want the best for our besties ❤️

and with summer around the corner, what better gift than the guarantee of spending the summer together at concerts, festivals, parties and palaces?

Refer a friend to Off to Work and you'll each get £20 towards the summer bucket list, making memories at some incredible events along the way

It's World Environment Day so here are three key sustainability trends you need to know if you're in catering or restaurants ⬇

- Waste not, want not 🥩🍗

More restaurants are viewing food-waste as a no-go which means a wider variety of cuts and ingredients on restaurant menus.

- Go with your gut 😎

Gut health is becoming an increasing priority for health-conscious diners. Repurposing food that would otherwise be wasted into in-house ferments is a great way to reduce waste and attract customers.

- It all comes around ♻

Looking to the natural world, where nothing is wasted, many restaurants are adopting a 'circular' system to cut waste.

If you want to find out more, a great blog by The Sustainable Restaurant Association inspired this post. It goes into more detail and has five more trends for you to learn about.

💡 Pro tip: If you're not sure where to start, start small.

Even something as simple as educating your teams on these concepts is a great first step in your journey towards sustainability - so be sure to save this post for later 👍

📸 Off to Workers at Aston Villa FC

Lot's of great takeaways at the Arena Savoy Lecture last week, where we listened to Kate Nicholls from UKHospitality talking about the emerging trends for hospitality

Key takeaways:

Turning revenue into profit is more difficult than ever, partly due to increased wage costs due to the National Living and Minimum Wage rises

To attract new talent into the industry we need compelling storytelling showcasing career growth and opportunity

Both these points resonated with the room, and also are echoed in our own research, with our recent State of Hospitality Recruitment report noting that candidates want competitive salaries and benefits and performance bonuses.

What are your thoughts on these insights? We'd love to hear from you! 👇
