Kristian
Founder, Roamio Talent Acquisition
Hospitality didn't start as a career for me. It started as an education that turned into an obsession.
From my first junior roles in Newcastle, Australia through the restaurants and hotels of Sydney, the laneway venues of Melbourne, the gritty pub culture of Manchester and Leeds, and the sun-drenched hospitality of Seville, Spain I spent twenty years learning this industry from the inside out.
Not as a recruiter watching from the outside. As an operator. Standing in the sections, managing the rosters, sitting in the briefings, having the difficult conversations, and understanding what it actually takes to run a hospitality business properly.
I moved through junior roles into senior Head of Department positions across hotels, clubs, pubs, restaurants, and cafes. I've managed teams, controlled wage costs, read P&Ls, and hired people good ones and bad ones and learned the difference between the two.
That's what I bring to every search Roamio takes on.
What Sets Roamio Apart
Operator-Led
Every search is run by someone who has actually done the job. Not a recruiter who learned hospitality from a job description - an operator who lived it across three countries and twenty years.
Personally Invested
This isn't a transaction. Roamio was built out of genuine passion for an industry that deserves better than what traditional recruitment has offered it. Every placement matters because this industry matters.
Accountable Beyond Placement
Most recruiters disappear the moment the contract is signed. We stay involved for 90 days because placing someone is the beginning of the work, not the end of it.
