# Job Description: HR Recruiter (Hospitality/F&B)
Company: Jodev Hospitality Pvt Ltd
Location: Mumbai (with travel to outlets as needed)
Reports To: HR Manager
Employment Type: Full-Time
## About the Role
We are looking for an energetic and organized HR Recruiter to manage end-to-end hiring for our F&B outlets, including store-level staff, shift supervisors, and back-of-house roles. This is a high-volume, fast-paced recruitment role suited to someone who understands frontline hospitality hiring, can move quickly, and is comfortable managing multiple open positions across locations at once.
## Key Responsibilities
Recruitment & Sourcing
- Manage end-to-end recruitment for store-level and outlet roles (store assistants, counter staff, shift supervisors, kitchen/BOH staff, etc.) across all outlets.
- Source candidates through job portals, local hiring networks, walk-ins, referrals, and hyperlocal channels (e.g., WhatsApp groups, local classifieds) suited to frontline hospitality hiring.
- Build and maintain a ready pipeline of pre-screened candidates to reduce time-to-fill for high-turnover roles.
Screening & Interviews
- Screen resumes/applications and conduct initial phone or in-person interviews to assess fit, reliability, and communication skills.
- Coordinate interviews with store/operations managers and ensure timely feedback loops.
- Conduct basic reference and background checks where required.
Onboarding & Documentation
- Manage offer rollout, documentation collection, and onboarding formalities for new hires.
- Ensure new joiners are aligned with store schedules, uniforms, and induction/training plans.
- Maintain accurate and up-to-date employee records and HR databases.
Workforce Planning
- Track manpower requirements across outlets, anticipating hiring needs for new store launches and seasonal demand spikes.
- Coordinate with store managers to understand shift-wise staffing gaps and prioritize openings accordingly.
- Monitor and report on hiring metrics (time-to-fill, attrition, source effectiveness).
Employee Relations Support
- Act as a point of contact for basic employee queries related to attendance, leaves, and documentation.
- Support in addressing early-stage attrition issues by coordinating with store managers on retention efforts.
Compliance
- Ensure hiring practices comply with local labor laws applicable to the F&B/retail sector (working hours, minimum wage, contracts, etc.).
- Maintain proper documentation for statutory compliance (PF, ESI, etc. where applicable).
## Requirements
- 1-4 years of experience in recruitment, preferably in hospitality, F&B, QSR, or retail (high-volume, frontline hiring experience strongly preferred).
- Strong communication skills in English, Hindi, and Marathi (preferred, given local outlet hiring needs).
- Comfortable with high-volume, fast-turnaround hiring cycles typical of store-level F&B roles.
- Familiarity with job portals (Naukri, Apna, Indeed) and local/hyperlocal sourcing channels.
- Basic proficiency with Excel/Google Sheets for tracking pipelines and reporting.
- Willingness to travel across outlets for interviews/onboarding as needed.
- Strong people skills, patience, and the ability to assess candidates for frontline customer-facing roles.
## Preferred Skills
- Prior experience hiring for retail/QSR/gelato-cafe or similar F&B chains.
- Understanding of shift-based staffing models and outlet-level manpower planning.
- Experience with HRMS/ATS tools for applicant tracking.
