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
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.
I absolutely would recommend the Horizon Team. Our success has come from setting clear expectations and parameters of exactly what we are looking for in our potential chefs and managers. Scott and his team sat with me to learn about the company, what we did and did not like.
We had a really hard time finding qualified candidates during our most recent search, and turned to Horizon in an attempt to speed up the process. They somehow managed to get several quality prospects through their connections in this area (SWFL). It didn’t take long to identify the person we wanted to hire and we are very pleased with the results!
Thank for doing a great job on this search. Your support, diligence, and responsiveness throughout this process has been tremendous….well done and thank you!
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!
The team has been very responsive and committed while supporting numerous searches for us. The interactions have been positive and collaborative. I’m grateful to the Horizon team for their support in helping finding great leaders!
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.
The Horizon Team was great to work with. They took the time to understand the specifics of our organization really helped find a culturally aligned candidate.
The entire team at Horizon Hospitality is professional and effective. Always responsive and good to work with, I really enjoy our partnership.
I truly appreciate the professionalism and thorough service we received. The process was simple and we were given great guidance all along the way. This was a critical hire for our company and I feel you gave the search the detailed attention it deserved. We would definitely use Horizon Hospitality again!
