Harri and Job Today Partner to Supercharge Hospitality Hiring

[London, UK – April 2025] – Harri, the global frontline employee experience platform built for hospitality, has announced an integration with mobile hiring app Job Today, bringing together two powerhouse platforms to streamline hiring processes and speed up time-to-hire for the sector’s fast-moving employers.

The partnership allows Harri users to instantly post job listings to Job Today, Europe’s leading app for hospitality, retail, and service sector recruitment, directly from within the Harri platform. The result? A simplified hiring process that puts opportunities in front of active job seekers. With over 235,000 active candidates in London alone in the last 12 months, hiring managers can start receiving applications in under three minutes, building strong candidate pipelines faster than ever.

“Job Today are laser focused on what they do and are passionate about candidate experience and speed to hire,” said James Appleton, Director of Talent Acquisition Products at Harri. “That makes them a great fit for us at Harri in all we try and deliver for our hospitality clients.”

Meeting the Needs of a Fast-Paced Industry

The hospitality industry moves fast — and so do its hiring needs. With an employee turnover rate of over 40%, the highest in the UK (source), businesses must be prepared to recruit and cover shifts at a moment’s notice. That’s where Job Today comes in. Designed for speed, flexibility, and human connection, the app-based, mobile-first platform enables employers to post roles and start chatting with candidates within minutes. And by enabling real-time chat between hiring managers and job seekers, it brings back the personal connection that’s so essential to hospitality.

“Job Today are the best at what they do,” added Appleton. “They engage candidates and drive outcomes. That’s exactly what hospitality managers need: fast and effective candidate funnels.”

The integration meets a growing demand from Harri’s clients, many of whom rely on high-volume hiring to stay agile. Now, with just a few clicks, jobs can be posted, reducing administrative load and speeding up hiring outcomes.

Empowering the Next Generation of Talent

For Pavel Brylov, VP of Engineering of Job Today, the collaboration represents a shift in how hospitality businesses connect with the workforce of tomorrow:

“Big corporates can now tap into the Gen Z workforce through a familiar mobile-first experience, integrating WhatsApp-style hiring with Harri’s structured recruitment process.”

Job Today’s user base is heavily weighted toward young, tech-savvy workers who expect speed, simplicity, and direct communication. By joining forces with Harri, these job seekers can now access even more roles in hospitality, and benefit from a more efficient and responsive application experience.

Laying the Groundwork for a Deeper Partnership

The integration is already live with several pilot clients, and early feedback is positive. One of the key benefits experienced by these clients is the significant reduction in time-to-engagement: many hiring platforms can take up to 48 hours to get job listings in front of job seekers, whereas Job Today ensures that job posts are live instantly, with employers starting to receive candidate applications in less than 3 minutes. 

Both Harri and Job Today have ambitions to build on this foundation, with future development focused on tighter system integrations, enhanced messaging between platforms, and innovative candidate targeting tools.

“Once we grow together through mutual clients to help them achieve more,” said Appleton, “both Harri and Job Today are keen to explore how we can deepen our integration to unlock more functionality for clients.”

For hospitality businesses looking to hire at speed and scale, the partnership signals a powerful new way to source, engage, and hire frontline talent in a market where time and experience are everything.
