Nov. 2019 - Aug. 2021Swansea, Wales, United KingdomMy job role at the start was that of a barista, I had specialty coffee training from the owner, and I progressed into Head of Coffee within the year. During my time as Barista within the company, I learned to hone my skills mainly with espresso-based drinks but also delving further into filter coffee and other brewing methods. In September of 2020, the owners left the company to focus on their Roastery business. My business partner and I took over the company, day-to-day running, and progression of BaseKamp.
Hi Coffee UKGeneral Manager
Jun. 2015 - Dec. 2020Neath Port Talbot, Wales, United KingdomHiCoffee was my introduction to coffee, I learned a lot in my almost 5 years with the company. I became an Assistant Manager within the first year of my employment and then progressed to Store Manager within my second year. In my third year I was given the title of General Manager which meant visiting other sites (Newport and two sites in Gatwick) to assist in training of staff in coffee and general day to day managerial duties. The store received multiple Level 5 Food Hygiene ratings under my management and never received a lower score. I was offered to be the pilot for the first Franchised store within the company, but I realised that I wanted to delve more into speciality coffee and having more control over products, quality etc and to go into business for myself.
