Overview
Executive Placements and Full-Service Hospitality Recruiting
Matthew Sanscrainte Hospitality Group (MSHG) provides specialized recruiting services exclusively within the hospitality sector. We focus on sourcing, evaluating, and placing leadership and operational talent that can execute at a high level from day one.
Our approach is not transactional. We do not operate as resume distributors. Every candidate presented has undergone a structured evaluation process designed to measure leadership capability, operational awareness, cultural alignment, and long-term performance potential.
We place professionals across all major hotel departments, including executive leadership, operations, sales, and housekeeping, with a focus on aligning talent to asset-specific needs.
The MSHG Method
A Structured Approach to Talent Placement
MSHG utilizes a multi-step methodology that integrates operational expertise with advanced candidate evaluation.
Targeted Talent Acquisition
We identify candidates through active sourcing within high-performing hospitality networks rather than relying solely on passive applicants.
Executive-Level Interviewing
Candidates undergo in-depth interviews focused on decision-making, leadership behavior, and real-world operational scenarios.
Proprietary Placement Testing
Each candidate is evaluated using internal assessment frameworks measuring loyalty, ambition, cognitive ability, and role-specific expertise.
- Loyalty and long-term commitment indicators
- Ambition and growth trajectory
- Cognitive ability and problem-solving
- Role-specific technical and operational expertise
Strategic Alignment
We match candidates based on the specific operational needs, ownership expectations, and positioning of the asset.
Post-Placement Oversight
We remain engaged following placement to ensure alignment and performance during the onboarding period.
Pricing Model
Transparent and Disruptive Pricing
Traditional recruiting firms operate on commission-based models, typically charging between 10% and 20% of a candidate's annual salary. This structure often prioritizes volume over quality and lacks accountability after placement.
MSHG replaces this outdated model with a flat-rate structure designed to align incentives with results. This approach provides cost predictability while maintaining a high standard of candidate quality and evaluation rigor.
100% 120-Day Money-Back Guarantee
MSHG stands behind the quality of its placements with a full performance guarantee. If a placed candidate does not meet expectations within the first 120 days, the client is eligible for a full refund.
There are no hidden conditions or complex clauses. The guarantee is straightforward and designed to eliminate risk for ownership and operators.
What Sets MSHG Apart
Differentiation Through Execution, Not Claims
MSHG operates fundamentally differently from traditional recruiting firms. Our model is built on operational expertise, structured evaluation, and performance accountability.
Operational Leadership Background
MSHG is led by professionals with direct experience managing and stabilizing hotel operations, including distressed assets.
Performance-Based Evaluation
Every candidate is evaluated against measurable indicators of performance, leadership behavior, and adaptability.
No Resume Distribution Model
We deliver a select number of highly vetted individuals who meet defined criteria—not volumes of unfiltered candidates.
Flat-Rate Pricing Structure
By eliminating percentage-based fees, we align our success directly with the quality of placement.
Speed with Precision
Our process moves efficiently without compromising standards, allowing for faster placements that maintain quality.
Hospitality-Only Focus
Our exclusive focus on hospitality ensures depth of knowledge, stronger networks, and better candidate alignment.
