It's our people that make all the difference
The story so far
There were two of us. And we’d both endured endless meetings staring at tired salmon sandwiches, sweaty cheese and dodgy pineapple on a stick. Surely there was more to food and catering than this?
So we set up Harbour & Jones in 2004. Our idea was to bring an exciting new dimension to catering. And only employ people who cared about it as much as we did.
A few years on and we have a wonderfully professional staff of 600. We all love what we do. And we work like crazy to meet our clients’ needs.

Spotlight on...
Oscar Wagner, Head Store Person
- What is your role within Harbour & Jones?
- I am the head store person for Harbour & Jones here at Catlin. I am responsible for all deliveries, and all the catering goods and equipment we receive in the loading bay. It’s my job to make sure they all get to the kitchen, the pantry and wherever else they need to go.
- With so many deliveries, that must be quite a difficult job.
- Like anything it’s about time management. If you have a safe and efficient way of doing things, then it's not too difficult no.
- How long have you been with Harbour & Jones, and how are you finding it?
- I’ve been with the company for about a year now. Catlin is a lovely place to work, and Harbour & Jones is the best company I have ever worked for. I’ve been doing what I do in London for six years, and nothing else even comes close.
