Last week we partnered with our apprenticeship provider Lifetime Training for a two-day Culture Conference, designed to immerse the Lifetime team in all things Whitbread. Hosted by Lifetime and packed with Whitbread guest speakers, here’s just some of what the event included 👇 🤩 Business updates and a fun game for the team to explore our new values 📲 A session on how to improve your social media presence 🍽️ A deep dive into our Level 2 Production Chef apprenticeship 📈 A chance to learn about other internal progression opportunities we offer The second day wrapped up with plenty of recognition, celebration, and reflection, and also offered an opportunity to look ahead to the coming year. Sian, our Partnership Manager, said: “It was actually the first time all of us as a team have been together at Whitbread’s Support Centre, and we couldn’t have picked a better venue to hold the conference. "It was a fantastic opportunity for our team to immerse themselves into the culture at Whitbread. The sessions from the two days will really support the team to continue to deliver a strong apprenticeship offering" Huge thank-you to everyone who made this event such a success and to all involved in our apprenticeships, allowing our teams to Rise & Shine 🤩 #RiseAndShine #Apprenticeship #HospitalityApprenticeships
We’re wrapping up Housekeeping Appreciation Week 🥳 With over 800 hotels, it’s no surprise our Housekeepers mean a lot to us. We’ve spent the past week celebrating with treats, team breakfasts and even running a competition to win a robot vacuum! Regional Operations Manager Laura, who joined us as a Housekeeper 24 years ago says, “In my 24 years at Whitbread, I’ve seen first hand the impact our amazing housekeeping teams have and I’m incredibly grateful for the solid grounding I was given when I joined as a Housekeeper myself. The incredible team I started with taught me everything I know and I still use the knowledge from all those years back in my role today! Their hard work behind the scenes makes all the difference and ensures that our guests have a clean and comfortable room. Thank you for everything you do, we couldn’t do it without you!"

“Whitbread was a great place to be as a working mum… �“…Now I’m a grandma and it’s just as flexible around my grandchildren.” 🥺 Family is really important to Annette and so when she joined us 26 years ago, she was keen to balance work around raising her young children. Over the years, Annette has worked in several roles across our restaurants and hotels, spending the last few as a Premier Inn Multi-Site Hotel Manager. But now that her children have grown up and have children of their own, Annette’s keen to change up her career path, while staying with us 🙌 She says: “I’ve spent the last 26 years building my career with Whitbread, and now that my grandchildren are here, I want to change things up to spend more time with them. �“I’ve loved working my way into management, but now things are changing and I’m looking forward to returning to one of my old roles—with different hours and less responsibility.” If you’re looking for a career you can shape around your family, join us today at https://www.whitbreadcareers.com 📲
We’re halfway to our fundraising goal! 🤩 We made a pledge to raise £20 million to go towards building the new Children’s Cancer Centre at Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital (GOSH Charity). The initiative is part of the Built it. Beat it. campaign and we’re really proud to say we’ve just reached our halfway goal of £10 million 🥳 We couldn’t have done it without our amazing teams, going above and beyond with their commitments to GOSH. Simon Ewins, our Managing Director, says: “With £10 million already raised towards the new Children’s Cancer Centre, we could not be any prouder of our teams and guests whose generosity never fails to astound us. We’re delighted to donate for every breakfast sold on September 26 – our teams will be geared up to serve delicious breakfasts up and down the land and excited, as ever, to serve our guests”.
