Our Story
Over 27 Years of Hospitality Search
Founded in 1998, Horizon Hospitality was created to solve one problem: executive and management hiring in hospitality was underserved. Other recruiters didn’t understand the nuances of guest experience, back-of-house operations, or multi-site F&B. We built a firm that does.
Today, we’re the search partner of choice for thousands of hospitality employers, from luxury resorts to high-growth franchise groups. Horizon Hospitality has been ranked by Forbes for three consecutive years as one of America’s Best Professional and Executive Recruiting Firms.

What Our Clients & Candidates Say
Horizon Hospitality helped us find the best general manager we have had in 7 years of operating. Eric Stuertz, the Recruiting manager was available whenever we needed him. Did I mention we did this hiring during a global pandemic, the week of Thanksgiving? Amazing job by Eric and his team!
Over the past three seasons, we have used the services of Horizon Hospitality. In each of our encounters, I have found them to be professional, responsive and highly communicative in all phases of the process. Candidates are well-vetted based on the criteria given and presented in a timely fashion. When finalizing the details, I have found Horizon to be diplomatic and of great value in closing the agreement with candidates.
Process from initial contact call till the final selection was excellent!
When circumstances have existed where finding an outside candidate is appropriate, we have used your firm and another firm in TX exclusively.
We wish we had pulled the trigger on using Horizon so much sooner! Right away we were presented with many well-qualified applicants. The communication was stellar and we truly feel Horizon understood our needs. The whole process was a joy and very professional. We are beyond happy with our decision to use Horizon.
We are thrilled with our selection and Horizon greatly assisted us as we reviewed candidates from across the country. The technology used saved time and money. Our committee gained valuable insight into the CVB culture, which proved to be crucial for selecting the right candidate.
Horizon did a great job, they kept me updated on the search/progress and in the end found me two great candidates!
I wanted to take a moment to tell you thank you and well done on the recent hires you and your team are responsible for. Earlier in the week, our Regional Vice President and I were discussing how happy we were with your services. Creating strong teams are our only hope to succeed, and we all feel that these recent hires move us squarely in the right direction.
The experience with everyone at the company was extremely positive and I am delighted to work with folks who truly care about the needs of their clients. They were very thorough in the pre-screening process and were 100% focused on finding just the right candidate for me.
Horizon Hospitality handled our search with a great sense of urgency. Always professional and timely. Always looking for feedback on candidate quality. I would work with Horizon again, for sure!
