Salary benchmarks
Our take
Fourth is the global leader in end-to-end restaurant and hospitality management technology solutions. Its SaaS suite includes scheduling, time and attendance, applicant tracking, training, inventory management, procurement, HR, payroll services, analytics, and AI forecasting tools.
This comprehensive offering enables clients to optimise profits, control costs and enhance guest satisfaction, as well as improve employee engagement and manage risk and compliance. Its business intelligence tools means businesses are better connected with their data, giving them visibility, insight and control to achieve more.
Fourth serves thousands of customers, with hundreds of thousands of locations, including big name brands such as Burger King, Mandarin Oriental, Shari's, Soho House and Food First. The company continues to release new products to its suite; such as Fuego, a financial workforce solution to help businesses attract and retain talent.
In the midst of an ongoing hospitality worker shortage, Fourth's ability to support flexible scheduling and virtual hiring could well be part of the solution for many businesses in the sector - which definitely represents an opportunity moving forwards.
