About TrayUp

Our Mission

To equip jobseekers with no UK hospitality experience with the confidence, training, and skills needed to land and succeed in service jobs like waitress, barista, or food runner.

Mission in Action

Why TrayUp Exists

TrayUp was born from witnessing the struggles of talented immigrants and newcomers who faced barriers entering the UK hospitality industry. Despite their enthusiasm and work ethic, many lacked the specific cultural knowledge and practical skills that UK employers expected.

We realized that traditional job training programs weren't addressing the unique challenges faced by people new to the UK hospitality scene. The unwritten rules, customer service expectations, and workplace culture were invisible barriers preventing capable individuals from accessing these entry-level opportunities.

TrayUp bridges this gap by providing practical, culturally-aware training that gives newcomers the confidence and competence to not just get hired, but to thrive in their new careers.
