CAREERS
Meet the Team
Since we started farming at Daylesford over 40 years ago, we have sought individuals who want to make a positive impact on the world through organic food and sustainable farming.
Our workforce is made up of a unique range of roles; from managing the farm to developing recipes and driving digital growth, no two roles are the same and our highly skilled employees all share a common passion: a commitment to Daylesford, our cause and the future of our planet, as well as a love of delicious organic food.
Recently, we sat down with some of our team members to learn about their journey at Daylesford so far and what makes them tick.

What has been your biggest achievement at Daylesford so far?
“Winning the nomination as Best Supporting Daylesford Manager in 2017 and winning our Daylesford Champions League in two different locations.

What is your advice for anyone wanting to join Daylesford?
“Don’t give up! As a company we might look complicated from the outside but if you take a closer look you’ll realise we are like a big family.”
What is your favourite Daylesford product or food?
“Most of the real meals and soups, but especially the chicken and vegetable broths. Also, our blue Legbar eggs – absolutely delicious!”

Tell us about your Daylesford journey.
“I love to work for Daylesford! I joined Daylesford in 2013 as a junior Team Member – running drinks, washing dishes, restocking shelves and looking after dry stores. After a year I was really excited to become a Bar Assistant and from there, trained as a Barista which I love. I now train all new baristas at Notting Hill and get so much satisfaction seeing them learn and progress.”
What has been your biggest achievement at Daylesford so far?
“There have been lots of achievements but for me, training people from different backgrounds no matter what their experience feels the most important. My barista trainees have been really successful and that’s satisfying to see – they’ve stayed in the business and achieved their personal goals, which makes me very happy.”
What is your favourite Daylesford product?
“The hen’s eggs are my favourite! They remind me of free-range eggs from my home in Uganda that are truly organic with rich yolks. When you eat eggs from Daylesford, you feel you are eating something really nourishing. I can’t get through the week without them! If I’m eating in the café, I always go for our café salads – the orchard slaw and spring grains are a highlight.”

Based in our Kingham office
Tell us about your Daylesford journey so far.
“I began my Daylesford journey in 2015 when I decided that I wanted to work for a company I was truly passionate about. Having worked in food in London and having run a pub with my uncle, it was time to align my passion with a company whose values matched my own. I started my career on the Daylesford deli counter as a Team Member, which is where my love for Daylesford produce really escalated. I did some additional work with the Food Buying Tteam to enhance my knowledge before becoming Assistant Retail Manager. Then in 2017, an opportunity arose and I become Direct Sales Manager where I have been ever since.”
What has been your biggest learning at Daylesford?
“It doesn’t matter how hard you have to work, if you love the company you work for and the people you work with, you’re onto a good thing.”
What is your favourite Daylesford product or food?
“It has to be the plain Daylesford kefir – I am fascinated with the benefits of ferments and cultured food, having tried many ferments over the years. Daylesford’s is just the best.”
