Connecting the future of Hospitality

Join the Talent Pipeline

The hospitality industry is facing a challenge: many hospitality students trained at colleges leave the industry within their first year, often due to unmet expectations set by employers. This partnership between HRiH members (employers) and People 1st International accredited colleges aims to solve this issue by attracting students into the industry and ensuring they have long, rewarding careers. By fostering connections between employers, students, and colleges early on, we aim to create a sustainable talent pipeline for the future.

As a student, this partnership offers you an exclusive opportunity to connect with top employers in the hospitality industry. Whether you’re looking for full-time roles, internships, apprenticeships, or work experience, this platform connects you with the right employers who are committed to your professional development.

Showcase Your Business to Future Talent

As a business, once approved you will have a dedicated profile page on the partnership’s online platform, allowing you to showcase your organisation and its opportunities to students across the UK. This profile will serve as your company’s introduction to a pool of motivated and skilled hospitality students looking for their next career move.
