Attracting Talent

The Great Cornish Food Academy is helping to explode the myth that working in food and drink is a poor career choice, by:

  • Lighting the spark for budding food entrepreneurs.
  • Reigniting interest in much-needed skills such as fishing and farming, butchery and bakery, with real, have-a-go experiences for career seekers of all ages.
  • Showcasing the brilliant variety of opportunities and earnings potential across the sector.
  • Helping employers hire and hold onto the right people.
  • Providing businesses with access to the knowledge, skills, ideas and confidence to take things up a notch.

We’re working with schools and colleges at all levels, from primary school children learning about food, how to grow it and how to cook it, to 14- to 16-year-olds taking the first steps towards their future careers.

We’re providing opportunities for older people considering a career change or simply curious to know more about working in food too.
