Food Production and Distribution Manager, Goodwood Estate

I’ve spent my entire career as a chef, working across the globe—from Africa to the Caribbean—gaining a wealth of experience in diverse culinary environments. One of the most memorable chapters was a year spent on St Helena Island in the South Atlantic, where I led the pre-opening and opening of the island’s first international hotel.

This unique role involved close collaboration with local farmers and fishermen, helping them scale their operations to meet the hotel’s needs. With supply ships arriving only once a month—and only when weather permitted—self-sufficiency was essential.

Two years ago, I returned to Goodwood to take on my current role as Farm Food Production and Distribution Manager. It’s a dynamic position that allows me to stay deeply connected to my passion for honest, healthy food and sustainable food systems.
