Hospitality people placed by hospitality people.

Most recruitment firms manage a process. We've managed businesses. Roamio is owner-led with over 20 years of hands-on hospitality operations experience not just placing people, but having personally owned and run venues, managed P&L, controlled wage costs, and led teams through real service pressure. We understand that a wrong hire doesn't just cost a fee; it costs culture, covers, and cash flow.

We work exclusively on permanent placements across Australia, with particular depth in Sydney and Melbourne. No temps. No volume-driven shortlisting. Just senior, strategic talent acquisition from people who've sat in the same chair as you.

No and that's deliberate. Roamio focuses entirely on permanent hospitality recruitment. We believe temporary labour solves a symptom; we're in the business of solving the cause. Revolving-door staffing erodes culture, frustrates guests, and costs far more in the long run than a single well-made permanent hire.

If you need someone to fill a shift tonight, we're not your call. If you need the right General Manager, Head Chef, F&B Director, or Venue Manager who will still be driving your business in three years that's exactly what we do.

We place senior and mid-level leadership across luxury hotels, boutique independent properties, and premium accommodation brands — from Sydney and Melbourne through to regional and international markets. Our core specialisations include: General Manager, Hotel Manager, F&B Director, F&B Manager, Executive Chef, Front Office Manager, Housekeeping Manager, Director of Sales, Revenue Manager, and People & Culture Manager."

We're not posting job ads and waiting. Roamio operates an extensive active network across Australia and into Asia built over two decades of operating alongside, hiring from, and working within the industry. We're already talking to the people your venue needs, before you even brief us.

The best hospitality leaders are rarely job-hunting. They're mid-service. They're building someone else's business. Our relationships mean we can reach those people and have a conversation they'll actually take because they know us, respect our standards, and trust that we won't waste their time with roles that don't fit.

We don't sit behind desks pushing CVs. When you work with Roamio, you're working directly with the owner someone who has managed rosters, run debriefs after bad services, built teams from scratch, and carried the weight of a P&L. We bring that lens to every brief and every candidate conversation.

For clients: your business comes first, full stop. We work with a deliberately select number of venues at any one time so we can be genuinely embedded in your strategy, not spreading ourselves across 20 open roles.

For candidates: you'll be treated with honesty, discretion, and respect throughout. We are advocates for fair practices in Australian hospitality because we believe without great staff, you have no business. Without great guests, you have the same.

Yes we operate across Australia, with particular strength and market depth in Sydney (NSW) and Melbourne (VIC). We also service regional markets and have successfully placed senior leadership in destination and regional hospitality venues where finding the right calibre of person is notoriously difficult.

Our network extends across Australia and into Asia, meaning geography is rarely the limiting factor the right person for your regional venue may already be in our pipeline. Get in touch and let's have that conversation.
