Running more than one venue in Hong Kong? Your hiring probably isn't running with you.

Most restaurant groups here hire one site at a time, even with three or five locations under the same brand. Each venue posts its own jobs, reviews its own applicants, keeps its own records. Nobody sees the whole picture — and a great candidate who applied to the wrong branch just disappears.

Multi-venue management is now live on Shift Happens:

– One account for every location, no separate logins
– Site managers see their own venue, head office sees everything
– Post one job across several venues, manage all applicants in one place
– Copy your shift templates to a new site instead of rebuilding them
– Venues included in your plan, not charged one by one

A restaurant group opening its second or third venue in Hong Kong typically discovers that its hiring process was never designed for more than one site. Job ...

What does it actually cost when a good sous chef walks?

Most operators write down the recruitment fee and call it a day. That's the invoice — and the invoice is reliably the smallest part of the bill.

The rest: cover during the vacancy, all the training that just walked out the door, and the months a replacement spends below full speed while everyone around them is watching instead of working their own section. Research across 33 hotels found that last one alone accounts for 55–69% of the total.

In Hong Kong, replacing a frontline team member runs HKD 25,000–40,000. A senior manager can reach HKD 1.2 million.

Our new piece breaks down the full arithmetic, why the range is so wide, and how to run the number for your own venue in an afternoon. Fair warning: once you've seen it, spending on better hiring and better retention stops looking optional.

Most operators price a departure at the recruitment fee, which is the smallest line in the bill. The real cost of a bad hire runs from a third of annual sala...
