Client Success Story: How Comiskey Group Overcame Staffing Challenges at Sandstone Point Hotel with You Solved

 

International Chef Recruitment

In the picturesque region of Queensland, the Sandstone Point Hotel stands as a testament to exceptional hospitality and culinary excellence. However, like many regional businesses, it faced a significant challenge—finding skilled staff to maintain its high standards. This is where You Solved stepped in, transforming their operations and ensuring their success.

Client Background

Comiskey Group: A renowned name in the hospitality industry, the Comiskey Group operates several high-profile venues across Australia. Their Sandstone Point Hotel, a jewel in their portfolio, is famous for its luxurious overwater villas and a range of dining options that attract thousands of visitors daily.

The Challenge

By October 2023, Sandstone Point Hotel’s business was booming, but they faced a critical challenge. The recent launch of their overwater villas had significantly increased their guest numbers, necessitating the urgent need for 10 highly skilled Chef de Parties. Despite their best efforts, hiring locally proved futile due to the ongoing skills crisis in Australia.

The Solution

You Solved’s Approach: Leveraging its unique model of recruitment and migration, You Solved efficiently sourced, migrated, and relocated 10 highly skilled chefs and three professional restaurant managers within a matter of weeks. These candidates hailed from prestigious global brands such as Hilton, Waldorf Astoria, Soho House, St Regis, Intercontinental, Four Seasons, and Cheesecake Factory.

Selection Process: The rigorous selection process ensured that only the best candidates with extensive experience in some of the world’s busiest and most high-profile venues were chosen. This meticulous approach guaranteed that Sandstone Point Hotel received top-tier professionals capable of meeting their high standards.
