Rachelle Yilmaz

Rachelle Yilmaz is a hospitality recruitment and technology founder, and the Founder and CEO of Visumé – an innovative platform combining recruitment and technology to help hospitality businesses hire better, faster, and with confidence across Australia and internationally.

With over 14 years of experience in education, training, and workforce solutions, Rachelle has worked closely with restaurant owners, chefs, and venue operators, gaining a deep understanding of the challenges of hospitality hiring – from staff shortages and inconsistent talent pipelines to skills gaps and costly mismatches. She also understands the complexities of visa mobility and work-rights requirements, and how these can impact retention, workplace culture, and service standards.

Her focus is on helping hospitality businesses connect with the right people efficiently, while improving candidate fit, compliance, and long-term workforce sustainability.

Rachelle founded the Visumé App, an AI-powered, video-based hiring platform designed to modernise the way employers discover and connect with talent. Launched across Australia, the UAE, and Asia, Visumé enables employers to discover and shortlist candidates through video profiles and AI-powered matching, while helping streamline work-rights and visa-related information.

By making hiring more visual, personal, and efficient, Visumé transforms a traditionally slow recruitment process into a faster and more engaging experience for both employers and candidates.

Rachelle’s leadership sits at the intersection of hospitality, innovation, and impact. She champions modern hiring systems that expand access responsibly, strengthen teams, elevate service, and support sustainable business growth.
