Real Skills. Real Floors. Real Ready.
The Problem
For businesses:
Untrained new hires can significantly hinder operations, requiring extensive supervision from employees who should be focused on their core responsibilities. With national hospitality turnover hovering around 15.5% (according to the Australian Industry Group) and a stark first-year retention rate of only 40%, venues continually encounter a limited candidate pool. This often leads to repetitive onboarding costs for the same positions throughout the year. Even with training systems in place, the quality of instruction can vary greatly between venues. Each trial shift carries inherent risk; a single mistake in front of an influential guest can jeopardise a venue’s reputation and future patronage. Moreover, hiring based solely on personality and hoping that practical skills will develop later frequently ends in disappointment, as venues often find themselves grappling with poor performance just weeks in, forcing them to restart the hiring cycle yet again.
For candidates:
You can't obtain a shift without experience, and you can't gain experience without a shift. Most people struggle to find their first opportunity. Some individuals already possess valuable hospitality skills that simply need to be brought to the surface; the issue is often nerves rather than ability. Given a little more time on the floor, they would likely excel.
We focus on training essential skills for floor service, allowing new employees to concentrate on the specifics of the venue from the moment they start. This includes learning how to polish, understanding the menu, and becoming familiar with the culture of the room. Additionally, we emphasise building confidence—arguably the most important skill of all, which is rarely taught.
WHAT WE DO
Sydney's training ground for your first hospitality job, and every step after it.
We train and pass/fail-assess candidates before they ever touch your floor, so the first shift isn't the test.
Our training focuses strictly on core physical and soft skills so that upon starting, new hires can immediately adapt to your venue's specific service style.
We act as a protective layer for both employers and new entrants to the workforce.
We cut your training time by more than half, saving money, reducing staff stress, and lowering the risk of hiring.
