Bleecker Burger, a beloved name in London's burger scene, started off as a humble food truck in 2012 and has since expanded its reach to eight locations across the city. Its ethos, 'Commitment to the Burger', truly reflects in its award-winning burgers, recognised as the best in the UK in 2024.

But Bleecker Burger's success doesn't stop at the plate. Its team is a united, diverse, and empowered force, reflecting the spirit of London itself. It champions anti-racism, feminism, and LGBTQ+ rights, fostering a culture of inclusivity and mutual respect. This culture is cultivated through frequent engagement exercises and team discussions, ensuring the organisation’s core values of being united, passionate, diverse, and empowering are not just words, but a way of life at Bleecker Burger.

Innovation is key at Bleecker Burger, not just in its culinary offerings, but also in its approach to talent acquisition and retention. Recognising the challenges of the current job market, the organisation has implemented progressive strategies including offering the London Living Wage as a minimum, using a video-based recruitment platform, and enhancing its referral scheme.

Investing in its people, Bleecker offers managers regular opportunities to attend mentoring and coaching programs covering topics like stress management, feedback and conflict handling, empowerment, leadership, and work-life balance. As part of its commitment to wellbeing, the organisation also encourages managers to qualify as Mental Health First Aiders. In essence, Bleecker is a company that puts as much passion into its people as it does into its burgers.
