Simply Hospitality Podcast

If you’re a chef who’s ever considered becoming a Food Inspector, this episode is packed with the information you need. We’re joined by three fantastic guests to explore what the career path looks like and how you can take the first steps.

First, we speak with Iain Ferris, Lecturer in Food Safety, Food Standards, and Food Law at the University of Birmingham. Iain shares insights about the course he offers for those wanting to become Food Inspectors, including entry requirements, course content, and costs.

Next, we’re joined by Chloe Goodship, a Food Regulatory Officer and former chef. Chloe completed the Birmingham course and talks to us about her experience both studying and transitioning into her role as a Food Inspector, a career she has now been in for nearly two years.

Finally, Jon Buttolph, Executive Director at the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health (CIEH), joins us to explain the wider opportunities available in Environmental Health careers.
