COME AND DO HOSPITALITY DIFFERENTLY

Great food. Brilliant people. Careers with room to grow.

Join an independent, award-winning caterer where your ideas are heard, your contribution matters and you are supported to do work you can be proud of.

BRING YOUR TALENT. WE’LL HELP YOU GO FURTHER.

Houston & Hawkes was built around a simple belief: exceptional hospitality starts with exceptional people.

Whether you are cooking, serving, making brilliant coffee, leading a team or just beginning your hospitality career, you will be trusted to make a difference and encouraged to bring your personality and ideas to work.

We are independent, ambitious and growing, but still close enough to know our people and celebrate the contribution they make. That means less red tape, more opportunity and plenty of room to make your mark.

“Great ingredients + well trained and motivated chefs = good grub! We have formed partnerships with suppliers that share our values to ensure we source produce that is ethical, seasonal and local. These carefully chosen ingredients are then put in the hands of our talented chefs to create delicious and nutritious dishes that are perfectly tailored to our clients’ needs. This is our recipe for culinary success! Now, let’s meet a few of our fabulous suppliers who will support us in our journey.”

WE ARE THE B CORP CATERER

SOCIAL. LOCAL. GLOBAL

“Our approach goes far beyond ‘being sustainable’. As members of Social Enterprise UK, we are passionate about supporting those who benefit from our help. We also keep things local and commit to using local and independent suppliers (at least 50% within 50 miles of our support office) and working with local clients (at least 75% within 50 miles).

“We work really hard to reduce our impact on the global environment by using local suppliers who care about bio-diversity, animal husbandry and sustainable farming - and those who share our farm to fork philosophy. We give back through our charitable links and we are committed to improving mental health at work having signed the Mindful Employer Charter.”
