For Employers

Hiring in hospitality isn’t straightforward - especially for independent venues in rural locations. From seasonal demand to the challenge of finding reliable chefs and staff who are the right fit long term, getting recruitment right is critical. Fellstone Recruitment works closely with hotels, pubs and restaurants across the Lake District and North West, providing a more considered and personal approach to hiring.

A More Considered Approach

We take the time to understand your business, your team, and what you need from a new hire. Rather than sending multiple CVs, we focus on introducing a small number of carefully selected candidates who are aligned with both the role and the environment. The aim is simple - to help you make the right hire, not just a quick one.

Why Work With Fellstone Recruitment

We work with a small number of clients, allowing us to offer a more focused and personal service. You’ll deal directly with Fellstone Recruitment throughout, with clear communication and a consistent approach from start to finish. By prioritising long-term fit over volume, we help reduce staff turnover and build stronger teams.

Fees

We operate on a straightforward, success-based fee structure:

10% of the candidate’s annual salary
12% for more senior positions

You only pay once the right hire is made.
