Meet Tom Emberson, Associate Director at Platinum Recruitment.
With a background in food and beverage management and strong local knowledge across Hampshire and Sussex, Tom brings years of hospitality and recruitment experience to the Regional Division.
When Tom first joined Platinum, his hairline was apparently a good three inches further forward.
Make of that what you will.
Tom started his hospitality career with De Vere Hotels and Village Urban Resorts.
He spent three years working in food and beverage management before joining Platinum Recruitment in 2015.
Today, Tom Emberson leads recruitment within the Regional Division, covering Hampshire and Sussex.
Having grown up, lived and worked in the area, Tom brings strong local knowledge and long-standing client relationships to the role.
Food and drink are always on Tom’s mind.
He loves cooking, experimenting with cocktails and finding the best local restaurants.
His ideal weekend is simple. A Saturday night trying somewhere new, followed by a relaxed Sunday in the kitchen with a glass of wine.
“I’ve seen Platinum from both sides. Before joining the team, I relied on their Relief Chefs more times than I can count. Now, I get to champion that same level of service from within the business.
What stands out most is the focus on people. There is real investment in training, genuine room to grow and a culture that celebrates team wins. I’ve loved seeing people build their careers here, and I’m proud to be part of that.”
