Most of our newly qualified professionals are already working in our kitchens and completed the EUV1 programme, which enables experienced, unqualified employees to become formally qualified and gain recognition for the skills they have already mastered.
“It’s important to me that everyone who has the ability and ambition has the opportunity to earn a professional qualification that helps secure a better future,” says Thais Brask-Simonsen, HR Partner and Apprenticeship Manager at Compass Group.
You have long since proven your ability to deliver great hospitality, outstanding food and an exceptional work ethic.
