Speaker Profile

Born in the UK and emigrating to Perth as a teenager, Nick caught the hospitality bug back home in 2005. More than 9 years at some of Brighton’s best drinks focused venues followed, along with teaching bartenders on ‘how to not set fire to things’ for renowned Jamaican rum company Wray & Nephew. Returning to Australia with stints at WA favourites Bar Lafayette, The Dominion League and Lalla Rookh, he joined the opening team at Long Chim (Perth) before setting sail for Melbourne. With a passion for travel and boilermakers (the drink rather than the occupation), look out for Nick as he heads up the Archie Rose advocacy program, leading a team of Brand Ambassadors in telling the Archie Rose story far and wide.
