Where Your Next Coffee & Tea Key Contributors Come From

Discover top-tier talent for your coffee and tea roles that you simply won’t find through conventional methods. Kinsa Group identifies candidates through a multi-pronged, highly effective strategy. We do not merely rely on public job boards; our approach is far more targeted and exclusive:

  • Proprietary Channels: A significant portion of professionals placed by Kinsa Group—approximately 85%—come from our own proprietary channels. We tap into sources many others simply cannot reach, ensuring access to a unique talent pool.
  • Exclusive Database: Over half of our exceptional candidates—around 55% of those placed—are sourced directly from our exclusive food industry database. This rich network holds professional and executive-level talent actively seeking and passively open to their next opportunity.
  • Social & Personal Networks: A substantial portion, roughly 25% of those we place, are identified through our recruiters’ extensive social networks and personal connections on platforms like LinkedIn. These are often hidden gems, not actively looking on job boards.
  • Trusted Referrals: An additional 5% of valuable talent we place comes through referrals from these trusted networks. Good people consistently know other good people who are equally skilled.

Kinsa Group focuses on both swiftness and accuracy in our searches. Our average time to fill a position is 60 days from the launch of a search to an accepted offer, bringing you qualified candidates promptly and efficiently.
