Venue Catering Partner (VCP) is a boutique, independent UK catering operator focused on sports, arenas and entertainment venues. Unlike the large national groups, VCP positions itself as a hands-on partner: clients keep more control over brand, pricing and service, while VCP runs the day-to-day operation and growth plan.
What VCP does at UK stadiums
VCP offers fully operated catering contracts and consultancy. At a stadium, that usually means public concourse catering, premium hospitality, conference and events, and street-food-style retail concepts designed to lift spend-per-head.
UK venues operated
- MKM Stadium – long-term catering partner for Hull City AFC and Hull FC, covering public catering, matchday hospitality and conference and events (often branded locally as Tigers Events).
- Eco-Power Stadium – Doncaster Rovers matchday and events catering.
- London Road – Peterborough United / Weston Homes Stadium catering.
- Other entertainment contracts have included venues such as Malvern Theatres.
Roles you’ll see VCP hire for
- Matchday bar and kiosk staff.
- Hospitality servers and hosts for suites and lounges.
- Chefs and kitchen leads for matchdays and non-matchday events.
- Supervisor, hospitality-management and events-operations roles.
How to apply
VCP does not run a single national careers portal. Vacancies are usually advertised under Venue Catering Partner or local brands (for example Tigers Events at Hull) on LinkedIn and job boards. Follow Venue Catering Partner on LinkedIn or check live listings for MKM Stadium, Eco-Power Stadium and London Road, then apply via the advert.
