ABOUT OUR DESIGNER

Leeds born and bred, I have been a passionate member of the foodservice community for more than 25 years. I love my job, the people, the industry, and the joy of delivering a successful project.

I have gained a wide experience in both the manufacturing and distributor environment. My clients have varied from vegan restaurants to care homes, independent schools to historic tourist attractions.

​

My career development started in Bradford at Victor Manufacturing providing servery design, quotation and warranty support. I moved to Lockhart Design Services where I cut my teeth in kitchen design and project delivery. After a while I was hired by Airedale Group where at first I led the design department implementing new systems, concepts and staff development. Eventually I moved to sales and left the business after 5 years of national account responsibilities in excess of £1m a year.

​

I took the opportunity to work in Daventry at Catering Design Group, there I worked with a talented team handling contract caterers and blue chip clients. After successfully completing a prestigious project for Nestle, I moved back to my native Yorkshire to get back to what I enjoyed most - design.

​

Having found my groove in consultation, I spent the next seven years developing projects with my colleagues at Arthur Walton. Following its demise in March 2020, I decided it was time to take the next step and form Hunsworth Food Service Design.

​

I am told by my contemporaries that my skill set is quite unique in the industry; in that I am fully conversant with the whole process. From consultation to project delivery, I am able to provide all aspects from CAD (2D/3D), quotation, equipment specification, specialist resourcing, tender analysis, project management, inspection and training.

If you are looking for an asset to your organisation, someone who will listen and offer solutions, maybe I can help you?
