Dare to be different!
Are you a recent graduate who is wondering if following the herd in to the personality free zone of big business is for you? If so, we may just be able to help. At Bighams we run a rather unconventional graduate scheme (it is unconventional because we are small enough for you to actually learn how a business works). The scheme is ideal for those who have a passion for food and want to make a real and immediate difference in a small and dynamic company.
PS We also do 3 month placements...

Our Moroccan Lamb has been one of our most popular dishes for nearly a decade. Why not take a moment and see what the Hairy Bikers made of the eclectic cuisine of North Africa.
We’d love you to tell your friends about us, so we thought the chance of winning this foodie powertool might entice you to recommend a friend?

One of the things I absolutely love about spring is its relationship with beginnings and new life. At Bighams we love all things fresh and innovative and thanks to your recent feedback we have been evolving.
Those of you are familiar with Bighams will know that when it comes to quality there is just no room for compromise. Earlier this year I was excited to be unveiling our new branding & packaging and while some aspects have been a roaring success, thanks to your feedback it was clear that other areas needed some refining.
Ditching our plastic packaging in favour of paper was a positive step in reducing our carbon footprint but unfortunately in practice we found that it had two major drawbacks. Firstly, the new packaging was significantly affecting the quality and freshness of our dishes; too many were being damaged in transit and the result was an inferior product that we and you were not happy with. The second major issue was cost – initially we hoped we could make the switch without incurring additional expense but unfortunately this turned out not to be the case and if we’d stuck with it we would have had to increase the price of all our dishes by 50p – not something we wanted to do. So, after much debate there was only one thing for it – it was back to the drawing board.
I was still keen to be as environmentally sensitive as possible, so the team has sourced a range of recycled plastic packaging that offers a more sustainable alternative to the packaging we were using a year ago but also ensures that our dishes are in tip top condition and looking just as delicious as they taste by the time they reach your dinner table. I am keen to know how the new packing performs, so please let me know how you get on.
On a different note, the scent of spring is finally in the air and this is an exciting time for us foodies. Spring is the season that brings the promise of an abundance of fresh new produce and with that comes a rush of brand new recipe ideas to get the taste buds dancing.
We have just launched a selection of new seasonal dishes and we are keen to hear you’re your thoughts. Our pies has been very popular this winter, so we are hoping that our new rustic range will provide a welcome alternative for the warmer months and Chicken, Chorizo and Bean is just one of three new flavours. We have also unveiled Chicken Primevera, which quite literally means the season of spring and is a fresh seasonal dish that is a particular favourite of mine at this time of year.
I hope you enjoy the new seasonal range, please let me know your thoughts.
