Ein Vermächtnis in der Suche nach Gastgewerbe.

Von einem wegweisenden Start in Rotterdam bis hin zu einer angesehenen globalen Präsenz stellt CourtesyMasters seit 1999 die Menschen in den Mittelpunkt des Gastgewerbes. Unsere Geschichte ist geprägt von unabhängigen Visionären, zeitlosen Werten und einem stillen Streben nach Exzellenz.

Geschichte

In 1999, CourtesyMasters was born in Rotterdam, The Netherlands as a revolutionary hospitality recruitment agency. Founded by the visionary Mr. Fons Bitter, our mission from the outset has been to provide exceptional permanent and interim hotel management solutions, as well as career management services, to employers and professionals in the hospitality industry.Fons, an experienced hotelier himself, recognized the need for an agency that truly understands the unique challenges and demands of the industry. In 2004, we were fortunate to have the ambitious and talented Larissa Zwart join our team. With her diverse international background and passion for hospitality, Larissa quickly became an invaluable asset to CourtesyMasters. By 2007, she took on the role of owner and director, propelling us to new heights of success.

Under Larissa's leadership, we evolved and adapted to the changing recruitment landscape. We developed unique headhunting and recruiting services that offer innovative, permanent and interim solutions to our clients. Expanding beyond hospitality recruitment, we transformed into a full-service talent acquisition and career management agency.

Today, CourtesyMasters is powered by a network of independent entrepreneurs who share our deep love for hospitality and talent management. This vibrant community is the driving force behind our continued success, as we collaborate to deliver exceptional service and solutions to employers and professionals in the hospitality industry.

With our roots firmly established in The Netherlands, we have grown into a global leader in acquisition & engagement, as well as career management. Our unwavering dedication to excellence, combined with our innovative approach to recruitment and career management, has solidified CourtesyMasters' position as a trusted partner for hospitality professionals and employers alike.
