Adam Shiel Commis Prep Chef, The Bull and Bear Hospitality & Catering

Adam is currently working for one of the most reputable establishments in Greater Manchester after studying Hospitality and Catering at Hopwood. It’s a fast-paced role – but one that he finds very rewarding. 

“I really appreciate the help and guidance from all the tutors at Hopwood. Each one provided me with a sound knowledge of the business”

Matthew Jackson
Matthew Jackson Store Manager at Costa Coffee Hospitality & Catering

Matthew found that the course was full of opportunities – both in and of the kitchen. He was able to gain extra qualifications, speak at college events, attend conferences and sit on various panels.

“My favourite thing about Hopwood was the opportunities that opened up. I went from a shy young boy to a strong independent man with skills, experiences and a qualification I never thought I’d have!”
