Choosing the right chef partners for our business is SO important. It gives our team members the tools, experience and expertise to achieve great things.   Andrew Aston MIH, Head of Community and Partnerships shares valuable insight with The Caterer, on the importance of addressing gaps in knowledge and responding to regional team feedback when recruiting the perfect partner. By collaborating with chefs like Thuy Diem Pham, Ruth Hansom, Kirk Haworth, Josh Eggleton and Bettina Campolucci Bordi, Andrew ensures the focus remains on team training and development.   Andrew emphasises, “We look at the authenticity of the food they cook, and where they could add value with training and development. That’s so important, the chefs are not a sales tool, they are for our teams first, so training must be in their DNA.   This approach not only enhances the standards of our chefs, but also boosts team morale and customer satisfaction, driving overall business success and a wider pool of culinary skills.

A Two-Decade Adventure in F&B Excellence Having grown up in a small town, I have always been captivated by the glamour of major cities and their opulent dining establishments, which has led me to become entangled in the fast-paced world of the food and beverage sector. Every dish prepared in this colourful world is a work of art, and every drink concocted is a work of art. It's a vibrant sector where originality and ingenuity are valued highly. Every day is exciting because of the never-ending possibilities to try new flavours, the always buzzing activity, and the constantly shifting trends. But even beyond the delicious food, the F&B sector has been a great teacher, developing my personal and professional development in addition to my professional abilities. In this field, being able to multitask is essential, communication is crucial, and flexibility is highly valued. Undoubtedly, it's a roller coaster ride, with its highs of success and lows of challenges.  But one really finds their tenacity and resilience in negotiating these turns and turns. This is a game of perseverance, which is derived from patience—a virtue I always uphold. Let's connect to get more industry insights. Let's relish this voyage of culinary discovery and career advancement together. . . . . . #FoodandBeverageIndustry #Industryinsights #Myjourney #TechnologyinFnBIndustry
