Hospitality Recruitment & Consulting That Actually Gets It

Built by operators. Backed by 24 years of experience. Serving Melbourne, the Peninsula and beyond.

In hospitality, the wrong hire — or the wrong strategy — costs more than wages. It costs culture, consistency, and guests who don’t come back. That’s why Taste Hospitality focuses on both recruitment and consulting: helping venues hire the right people and strengthen the systems that help them stay.

With 24 years running pubs, restaurants, and flagship venues across the UK and Australia, we bring operator-level recruitment and hands-on consulting expertise that builds lasting teams and stronger businesses.

Our approach is guided by values that put culture at the centre:

  • People over placements

  • Fit over fill

  • Culture over commissions

Venues choose Taste because:

  • We’ve done the job — not just filled the role

  • We bring strategy, structure, and substance to hiring and operations

  • We know how to spot the people who last — and help them thrive

Recruitment and consulting aren’t about quick fixes. They’re about building stronger teams, delivering better service, and creating venues where people want to stay. Whether you’re looking for the right hire or the right structure, Taste Hospitality helps you grow with confidence.


Let’s talk about the people who will define your venue.

“Because we’re not just here to fill roles - we’re here to strengthen your team.”
