Vice President

Gecko Hospitality helped me fill a unique position in a fraction of the time it has previously taken. Gecko saved me the time and frustration I usually encounter with the hiring process.

We approached Gecko Hospitality more than a year ago with some very specific hiring needs. Joan and her staff listened to our requirements and has been able to send us some highly qualified candidates. I appreciate the thorough job of vetting the candidates to make sure we only see individuals that meet our hiring needs.  Everyone that I have dealt with at Gecko Hospitality has been professional and extremely helpful. We are very satisfied with the relationship and job performance of Gecko Hospitality

Drew T. | McDonald's

We love working with Gecko! Over these last few years, I have had a few tough recruiting challenges and without Gecko's help,  I would have struggled more. Gecko is responsive, professional and connected to great talent. They have the knowledge and expertise to find the right candidates for our organization, saving us time and effort. Plus, their customer service is top-notch - they truly care about finding long-term solutions for our business. I am thankful for the partnership and look forward to many successful hires.

Regional Manager

I recently worked with Gecko Hospitality to fill a management position within my hotel, Hilton Garden Inn. I found the experience to be nothing but positive. I found Gecko to be very professional and reliable in this process. I am very happy with the candidate who ended up being placed and is overall very happy with the entire experience.

I look forward to working with you and Gecko Hospitality in the future!

David G. | Hilton Garden Inn
VP of Operations

We are delighted to recommend the team of professionals at Gecko Hospitality. They have played a critical role in the senior management of Hotel Management Services. We started our search for a Senior Vice President of Operations for our group of hotels. They helped us every step of the way. They met with us and drew from that meeting a better understanding of the culture of our company. We, in the past, have used management companies for the staffing of our hotels as well as trying to source people directly. The work Gecko Hospitality did was unique. They understood immediately what we needed. Their resources proved to be true.

In four short weeks, we secured the best Senior Vice President for our organization. We are very pleased! The candidates were excellent, and Gecko Hospitality helped keep the process moving. Their follow-through is great. We are pleased with them and will definitely use them again.

Phillip C | Hotel Mgt Services
Director of Sales

I wanted to follow up with you on the candidate you recommended for our Embassy Suites hotel.  WOW, she is awesome. I visited the property last week and we went out to make sales calls and she is great. She is professional, friendly, and unafraid to knock on anyone's door. She was the perfect fit for our team there.

I appreciate all your efforts in finding us the perfect fit. You made everything SO easy and saved me a lot of time and searching. I will definitely call you again should I need another "perfect fit" at another of my hotels. I have also shared your information with some of my counterparts. Thank you again it was a pleasure to work with you.

Debi F | Dimension Dev, Inc
Estate Manager

Gecko Hospitality placed us with an excellent recruiter, Jack Hrad. Jack took every detail to heart when selecting the best potential candidates for our needs. We were looking for a niche position for a private residence. Both Jeremy and Jack communicate professionally and concisely. We will certainly reach out to Gecko again, should the need arise. We would also recommend using Gecko for hospitality-related headhunting.

Leah M. | Mewbourn Oil Co. (Pvt. Estate)
Developer / Owner

As an experienced hotel developer, operator and owner, I recently took over a property in a new city and needed to staff it with a high-quality, sales-oriented General Manager on very short notice.  This was not an easy request.   However, having previously worked with her in a major market hotel management position, I contacted Dossandra Lazar at Gecko Hospitality to handle the search for me. 

Based on the criteria for the position, Gecko was able to present several talented candidates for me to select from. Gecko assisted in the entire hiring process from pre-screening to background checks and references.  With the high caliber of candidates she presented to me, I was able to hire an outstanding General Manager for our new property. I will most certainly use and wholeheartedly recommend Gecko for any future hospitality recruitment needs

Ted T | Caerus Hospitality Partners
Director of Operations

Gecko is spot on with quickly identifying the type of candidates that you need and providing excellent resumes in a very short period of time. The communications are specific and helpful in assessing the talent that they provide.
