We takeover BrewDog Waterloo for our launch event

Some of the biggest names in hospitality attended a spectacular launch event held in London last night (November 2) to kick off the industry’s biggest ever recruitment campaign.

Industry leaders and colleagues turned out in their droves to support the launch of the Hospitality Rising (HRUK) movement at a special networking event held in Brewdog Waterloo.

A host of prominent speakers from the hospitality industry discussed how the campaign could help tackle the sector’s crippling jobs crisis which stands at around 400,000 vacancies.

The event saw talks from the campaign’s brainchild, Mark McCulloch, Emma McLarkin OBE, CEO of the British Beer and Pub Association, David Sheen from UK Hospitality, Paulo Areas from creative and innovations agency Forever Beta, and David Campbell, Chairman of HRUK.
