MEET THE TEAM AT THE HUNGRY GUEST!

Described by Country Life Magazine as ‘ebullient’, Vicki has a wealth of retail experience (over 27 years!), and is passionate about her businesses and teams. Known to all her Hungry Guests, she provides amazing customer service and has incredible expertise when it comes to cheese. Vicki has been recognised with multiple accolades, including Manager of the Year in 2019. 

Vicki is known for being a great coach and mentor. Throughout her career, she has mentored dozens of team members and work experience students. More recently, she has offered guidance to teenage students who have become disengaged at school, supporting a local college as a part of the exceptional “Be The Change” programme.

Our chirpy, tie–wearing extrovert, Calumn is a true expert in his field, bringing champions’ quality every day. Loved and trusted by his customers, Calumn is always ready with cooking tips, and has won awards in butchery for company achievements. He has been named Manager of the Year twice, and won Best Window Display in a competition arranged by Dalziel & Pow. As vice chairman of Hythe Youth Council, Calumn started a petition to get a skate park for the youth, and won. Hythe still has their skate park today!

I am the longest standing member of The Hungry Guest Shop team, having started out with the company in 2015. I love the sense of local wellbeing and community spirit here, which is why I also instruct my own local yoga class. When at work, I enjoy nothing more than talking to customers about our amazing range of cheeses and slicing up a selection for them; though it would be hard to pick a favourite, I would have to say Lord London!

I have worked at The Hungry Guest since October 2017, starting as a part-time employee and quickly becoming a full-time site supervisor for the Shop and Café. My favourite product is definitely our own Hungry Guest Pecan Pie. Working for The Hungry Guest is great because of the sense of community we have with our broad range of friendly customers.

Previously an employee at The Hungry Guest Café, I now enjoy working alongside a fun and well-rounded team at the Shop. I love driving around the picturesque county of West Sussex and getting to know the faces and personalities of our customers.

I have worked for the company since 2016, starting out as a waiter at The Leconfield Restaurant (now E. Street Bar & Grill). Since then I have worked in and around almost every area of the business, from our bakery and production kitchen to ‘Toto Travels’. In my current role at The Hungry Guest and with our home deliveries team, I love to see the sense of pride and joy we bring to our customers, and the fact that we all love what we do. The thing I like most about our brand is the commitment to development and providing opportunities to employees, as evidenced by my journey from waiter to Assistant Retail Manager.
