The UK’s first on-demand hospitality talent platform with an integrated training solution

FlairMakers’s hospitality talent platform connects hospitality businesses with skilled freelancers – and it will play an integral role in reskilling and upskilling Britain’s workforce 

Online hospitality platform FlairMakers has launched in the UK, and one of its first objectives is to reskill and upskill hospitality talent across the country to meet the challenges of post-Brexit recruiting.

FlairMakers is a unique platform that connects hospitality businesses around the UK with skilled freelancers searching for well-paid opportunities.

As the UK’s first on-demand talent platform dedicated to upskilling and reskilling its hospitality talent network, FlairMakers aims to raise industry standards through service education – making hospitality a bone fide profession that requires essential skills.

This innovative marketplace for talent has committed to working with its partners in hospitality sectors and regions where talent is scarce. The ultimate goal is to lay the foundation for a more skilled workforce during a time of immense change for the industry.

FlairMakers was established to take a two-pronged approach to domestic hospitality recruitment. And unlike traditional recruitment solutions in the UK, this unique online marketplace puts talent first.

For freelancers, FlairMakers offers the ability to negotiate higher rates based on performance, career growth through tailored training, and immediate payments after each engagement. Freelancers are treated as professionals, with a focus on developing their personal brand – something that sets this platform apart in an increasingly competitive marketplace for talent.

Businesses can benefit from access to pre-vetted, skilled talent. The model also has the flexibility to fulfil hospitality firms’ short-term staffing needs. Businesses that sign up with the platform pay low rates of commission, which means they can afford to pay the freelance talent they find significantly more than agency averages. 

Moreover, lower commissions allow cash-strapped businesses in the sector to cut operating costs. Firms also benefit from integrated contracts and a transparent rating system – ensuring quality and accountability in every hire.

Raluca Epureanu, a seasoned professional with luxury hospitality experience, is the founder of FlairMakers. She’s excited about the prospect of professionalising a host of hospitality roles through training and development. “We are not just filling roles; we are building careers,” she says. “With domestic recruitment at the forefront of our mission, we want to highlight the importance of service as a profession – where artistry, and not just completing a series of tasks, – is key to long-term job satisfaction and success.”

“Unlike other roles, hospitality requires refined skills that drive guest experiences – turning jobs into careers. That’s the essence of FlairMakers. At a time of uncertainty due to economic upheaval, Brexit and spiralling costs, we’re on a journey of growth, and that journey starts right now.” 

FlairMakers is currently accepting applications from both hospitality freelancers and businesses. To find out more, visit flairmakers.com.
