How we work

At HBD Partners, integrity and authenticity aren't just values — they shape every conversation, every relationship, and every decision we make. We take the time to understand what truly matters to our clients and candidates before we begin, which is why most of our business comes through recommendation. That trust is something we work hard to earn, every time.
Exceptional knowledge of our sector
Every search is targeted and purposeful, drawing on decades of relationship-building across the Hospitality industry. Our depth of sector knowledge means we don't just know the market — we're embedded in it, staying close to the people, movements and trends that matter at senior commercial level.

What our clients and candidates say

We can talk about what makes HBD Partners different — but our clients and candidates do it better. The relationships we build at senior commercial level are built on trust, discretion and results, and we're proud that so many of the people we work with choose to recommend us. Here's what they have to say.

I have worked with Mark and HBD over the past 2 years with my various clients, one of these a hotel opening. When recruiting it is really key for me that I have a contact who communicates regularly, understands the job requirements, the culture of the company and knows the team involved plus knowing me and if this candidate will be the "correct fit" . Mark understands all of the above and will find a candidate which meets the above criteria. In addition to the above Mark is easily contactable at all times, very approachable, responsive and makes you laugh when you need it! It makes working with HBD and Mark a pleasure.

We were very impressed with the level of attention given to the position we were recruiting for. HBD provided us with a great selection of candidates and adapted to the brief as feedback was given with regards to unsuitable candidates. We wouldn't hesitate to use them again!

I have had the pleasure of working with Will for many years. He has consistently delivered great candidates for the roles being searched for and is meticulous in understanding the needs of the client. His professionalism and business morality can never be questioned and his positive attitude always makes it a pleasure to connect. I would have no hesitation to recommend Will and HBD Partners to any client and candidate alike.
