Anthony's story

Chef Anthony Facey from our Moranbah site in Queensland is an inspirational success story of Compass Group’s partnership with the Clontarf Foundation. His is a remarkable story of what people can achieve if you put in the hard work. When a Clontarf Employment Officer took him to meet the kitchen staff in one of our sites in Gatton, his chef journey slowly began. At first, Anthony wasn’t convinced he should be a chef as he thought he was “too dumb” to succeed. But he gave it a go and became an apprentice chef. The rest, as they say, is history. Today, Anthony wants to continue with his career growth within the company and try for a management role. He believes he has a great future ahead of himself. “You’ve got to earn what you get, and get what you earn,” Anthony said.
