Why Now

Pub labour just got more expensive.

From April 2026, every hour matters more. Precision — not lower wages — is the lever.

£0.00

New National Living Wage — and the 18–20 rate up 8.5% to £10.85.

£0.0bn

added to hospitality's wage bill this year, plus NI and rates rises.

0%

average hospitality staff turnover — vs 34% across the UK economy.

–0.0pts

pub schedule accuracy fell faster than any other concept last year.

Labour is your biggest controllable cost. Most pubs are absorbing 8–10% more hours than they schedule — the cost of a 61st site on a 60-site estate.

The Software

One platform. Four pillars. Zero faff.

Everything a pub needs to hire, schedule, manage and pay its people — radically simplified.

01

Talent Acquisition

Hire in days, not weeks. Pubs' median time-to-hire is 10 days — top operators do it in under 7, before strong candidates accept elsewhere.

02

Workforce Management

Demand-based forecasting and scheduling. Automated forecasts with simple manual override, Guided Hours, and rotas built from your own templates — up to 98% forecast accuracy.

03

Core HR

Digital onboarding, right-to-work and compliance handled. New starters are day-one ready — clear schedule, correct first pay run.

04

Payroll

Fully managed end-to-end: starters, leavers, HMRC submissions and an accountancy pack. A dedicated payroll specialist, not a ticket queue.

Start where it pays fastest: WFM + Labour Consultancy as one package. The other pillars click in whenever you're ready.

The Consultancy

People make the savings stick.

The software finds the opportunity. People who have run pubs linking Tech to Team - so the system pays the business.

1

Induction

Every publican meets their consultant before go-live. Context, credibility, zero cold starts.

2

Discovery Visit

On-site, watching a live service. A structured 9-metric labour conversation — not an audit.

3

Ops Debrief

Findings shared with your ops manager within 48 hours. Constructive, data-led, relationship intact.

4

Ongoing Coaching

Return visits, training and calibration. Progress tracked visit-on-visit from a growing report library.

Not from IT. Not from head office. Every visit produces a site report — and every report builds your estate picture.

The Payoff

What precision is worth, in pounds.

Measured across 5,579 UK pubs — the gap between average and top-quartile operators.

£0+

saved per site per week from clock-in discipline alone — typically 30 unplanned hours stopped

0% vs 0%

top-quartile forecast error vs the rest — worth tens of thousands per site, per year

£0–0K

the annual cost of turnover on a single 20-person site — top operators cut it in half

0%+

90-day retention for top performers, vs under 60% at the bottom — fewer holes to backfill

0%

of weekly rota-building time handed back to managers — 3.7 hours back on the floor

£0.00

more revenue per labour hour where schedules are trusted and published early
