In this week's episode, we discuss the possible ways to attract new talent into the food industry. As you’ll hear from listening, Lucy and I are both really passionate about getting new talent into this industry, we feel there’s a lack of understanding throughout our society as to what it actually means to work in the food industry - it’s not all chefs and fry cooks! We talk about how we could use schools to raise awareness following our successful LinkedIn poll, if big businesses are doing enough in terms of offering opportunities and how working for a company that makes you feel good gives you more purpose and higher job satisfaction. Like any brand, this industry needs to raise its own awareness!
