ATS For Entertainment & Leisure

Each Reach ATS system is configured around your recruitment process and on average, takes 8 to 10 weeks to implement. Workflows, permission structures, approval routes and branded candidate journeys are set up before go-live, so your venue managers, hiring teams and HR users can start using the system straight away.

Where a faster turnaround is needed, we will work with you to agree a focused implementation plan, clear milestones and practical responsibilities for both teams, helping everyone stay aligned and on track for the agreed launch date.

Right to Work checks can be fully integrated into the system, alongside DBS checks for roles that require them. The process is straightforward for candidates and hiring managers alike, with checks initiated and stored directly within the system. No chasing paperwork separately, and no gaps in your compliance records.

The software is built to handle the complexity of multi-site operations in entertainment and leisure. Multiple locations, brands, and hiring teams can all be managed within a single system, with distinct workflows, permissions, and oversight for each. Every venue manager sees what’s relevant to them, while HR retains full visibility across the organisation.

Reach ATS supports a strong employer impression at every touchpoint. A branded careers page is included as standard, with a fully bespoke microsite available for organisations that want to go further. Application forms are customisable, pre-qualification questions filter candidates early, and fast-track options reduce friction for those applying on the go. Automated communications keep applicants informed throughout.

Reach ATS is designed to flex with your hiring demands. When volume peaks around a season or event, the system scales to match without disrupting your usual process. Talent pooling functionality means you can maintain a database of previously engaged candidates, including returning workers, giving you a ready resource to draw from rather than rebuilding your pipeline from scratch each time.

The platform helps reduce the time between application, assessment, offer and first shift by keeping each stage of the hiring process moving. AI screening can provide faster candidate summaries, suitability indicators and scoring for the hiring team to consider, while one-way video interviews can remove diary delays where a formal first-stage interview is not needed.

The system also supports faster communication, structured hiring manager review, interview scheduling, offer management and onboarding workflows, helping teams move suitable candidates through the process quickly. For entertainment and venue-based organisations, where hiring demand can change rapidly around events, seasons or opening schedules, this makes it easier to secure candidates before they move elsewhere.

The software makes it easy to capture interest from walk-in candidates, event applicants or people who express interest informally. QR codes can be used on posters, venue signage, recruitment stands or printed materials, taking candidates straight to a mobile-optimised application journey.

Rapid Apply also helps candidates apply quickly by allowing them to upload their CV and have key information populated into the application form, reducing the time and effort needed to get started. This gives venue teams a fast, practical way to turn informal interest into a structured application without putting candidates off with a lengthy process.
