Meet the Team
Peter Pitham MHCIMA, FCSI, RIPHH
Managing Director
Peter’s experience in the Catering Consultancy & Management industry spans over 35 years, where he has been employed in various roles from Chef through to Operations Director. A craft-trained caterer, Peter's career developed with BP, where over 15 years he progressed through the catering ranks from Apprentice Chef to Senior Catering Manager. Following this, Peter joined Catering By County, spending 5 years in special events management and business development. Peter progressed to spend the next 12 years of his career in contract catering, where he held senior Director posts for Gardner Merchant (now Sodexho), Baxter & Platts and Yes Dining.
Peter’s roles and experience within the contract catering sector enabled him to identify the overwhelming need for a professional consultancy support service that would provide operational and financial support, primarily to contracted catering operations, in order to provide transparency and value to clients. Hence, Catering Consultancy Bureau was born in 2002.
Peter has since been awarded full professional membership status of the Foodservice Consultants Society International (FCSI) and is also a board member on behalf of the FCSI Executive Committee. Additionally, Peter represents People 1st, the Sector Skills Council organisation for the hospitality industry.
In his spare time, Peter enjoys fishing, DIY, theatre and motorsports.
