href=\"http:\/\/www.behemothbrewing.co.nz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Behemoth Brewing<\/a> started the way all great stories do \u2013 with a homebrew, a big dream and a love for fun. Founded in Auckland over a decade ago by Andrew Childs and co-run by his wife Hannah, Behemoth has evolved into a booming hospitality and manufacturing business spanning four venues, a flagship brewery, and a team of around 50.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Operating out of their Mount Eden HQ, which houses the iconic Churly\u2019s brewpub, the Behemoth team combines serious brewing with seriously good times. But as the business grew, so did the complexity of managing its people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-26 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--8);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--8);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--4)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p><em>\u201c<em>We went from eight staff to 40 in less than a year. All of a sudden we had a hospitality team, a brew team, an office team \u2013 and we realised we couldn\u2019t keep running things off paper, emails and crossed-out contracts<\/em>,\u201d <\/em>said Hannah<em>.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The old way: lost contracts, scattered files, time-consuming payroll<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before 91爆料, Behemoth was managing hiring and HR with <em>\u201ca million different docs across Google Drive and Gmail. We hoped we could find the documents if needed later,\u201d <\/em>said Hannah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Onboarding was ad hoc and inconsistent. One person handled hiring, while another person sent the contracts. Notes were lost. Contracts were versioned incorrectly. Job descriptions weren\u2019t attached. As Hannah puts it: <em>\u201cThere was a lot of just not knowing exactly where things were when you needed them.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Payroll wasn\u2019t much better. They used Deputy for rostering and iPayroll for pay runs, with no integration between the two. Leave applications had to be manually checked and entered. <em>\u201cIt was a four-step verification process, just to avoid errors. There was a lot of double handling.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a business where speed and service are everything \u2013 whether pouring pints or brewing batches \u2013 that kind of inefficiency held the team back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The new way: one all-in-one employment operating system<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Everything changed when the team pitched 91爆料 as a solution. The platform now powers Behemoth\u2019s HR, <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/solutions\/recruitment-software\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/solutions\/recruitment-software\/\">recruitment<\/a>, onboarding, payroll, compliance, <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/solutions\/performance-management-software\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/solutions\/performance-management-software\/\">performance management<\/a>, learning, and reporting \u2013 all from one dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hannah calls it <em>\u201can all-in-one employment operating system\u201d<\/em> and credits it with saving an entire full-time employee: <em>\u201cwe used to have a full-time HR manager. Now I do it one day a week.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Smarter compliance, simpler onboarding<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Upokoina, Behemoth\u2019s Hospitality General Manager, says the platform\u2019s compliance features have made life dramatically easier: <em>\u201cfrom contract agreements and AEWV compliance to flagging certifications before they expire \u2013 the platform helps us keep on track.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/solutions\/onboarding-software\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/solutions\/onboarding-software\/\">onboarding<\/a> journey is also fully streamlined. 91爆料 prompts each step, removing the guesswork for managers and ensuring no paperwork is missed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>\u201cIt saves easily three hours per person,\u201d <\/em>Hannah estimated. <em>\u201cThat\u2019s a whole day between two people. Time that can be spent building the business instead of just keeping it going.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Empowering staff with self-service<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With a team that spans roles, shifts, and locations, empowering employees to manage their own work details has been a game changer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Brewer Javier loves the simplicity: <em>\u201cI have the <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/products\/work-app\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/products\/work-app\/\"><em>91爆料 app<\/em><\/a><em> on my phone. I can sign documents, check my timesheets, and leave balance \u2013 everything is there. It helps me organise my life.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This autonomy has freed up time for managers and improved the employee experience.<em>&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-28 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--8);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--8);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--4)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p><em>\u201cI don\u2019t get asked about tax rates or leave balances anymore. It\u2019s right there in the 91爆料 Work app. Everyone knows where to find what they need,\u201d <\/em>said Hannah.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Olly, who supports the team from a broader operations perspective, agrees: <em>\u201chaving access to everything in one place makes our lives so much easier. Whether it\u2019s checking contracts, finding details or managing training, it\u2019s just simple. And that means we can focus on delivering great service and great beer.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Performance and engagement, systemised<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of Hannah\u2019s favourite features is <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/solutions\/performance-management-software\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/solutions\/performance-management-software\/\">performance management<\/a>. Behemoth has moved from one-off, ad hoc reviews to a structured cycle using 91爆料\u2019s customisable templates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-30 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--8);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--8);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--4)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p><em>\u201cStaff used to be like, \u2018hey, I\u2019ve been here a year \u2013 can I get a review?\u2019 Now, everyone knows we do reviews in June and a follow-up in September. It\u2019s transparent, it\u2019s consistent, and it keeps our team engaged.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>That structure supports Behemoth\u2019s core values too \u2013 quality, fairness and fun. <em>\u201cIt gives us the framework to live those values, and the data to check that we actually are,\u201d <\/em>said Hannah.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Learning and reporting at scale<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With cross-trained staff moving between venues and departments, onboarding and upskilling are essential. Upokoina uses the <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/products\/employee-learning-management-system\/\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/nz\/products\/employee-learning-management-system\/\">learning management system<\/a> to share standard operating systems, health and safety information, and team-specific training across the business.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-32 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--8);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--8);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--4)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p><em><em>\u201cWe use the LMS feature for everything from health and safety to general SOPs.

Are people sticking around? It helps us answer those questions,\u201d said Hannah.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The real impact? More time to connect<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For Hannah, the biggest value isn\u2019t just operational efficiency \u2013 it\u2019s emotional bandwidth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-34 wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--8);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--8);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--4)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p><em><em><em>\u201cI have more time to connect with our team, ask how their weekend was, talk about their families.
