Christine Puttick
Consultant

 

 

A graduate of the University of Surrey, Christine Puttick’s professional career began with the largest local authority in the UK. Later, she established thriving retail sales outlets for two major charities. Christine has worked as section manager for one of the largest high street retailers. During this time, she was responsible for building the highest turnover to date for the retail catering operation. Under her management, it was recognised as a ‘centre of excellence’ and became a training site for the group’s less well performing operations.

Christine has considerable expertise on HACCP, legal compliance and licensing, as well as issues relating to recruitment and customer service.

Christine's projects include:

  • Quality monitoring and due diligence audit, ensuring compliance with legislation on all aspects of catering and food retailing for a multi-national company.
  • Review of visitor catering services for a local authority.
  • Monitoring of multi-site staff catering and hospitality for a leading financial services provider.
  • Design and delivery of training and development courses for catering staff on a regional level for a major UK retailer.
  • Review of operational standards of hospitality provision for a firm of solicitors in the City of London.
  • Advice to a national autism training centre on catering provision for children and staff, including hospitality.
  • Catering equipment inventory for a multi-site catering contract.
  • Management and development of a successful coffee shop, introducing Fairtrade and ‘green’ produce in menu development and general operations, in accordance with the retailer’s own commitment to sustainability.
