In conversations with Ryan Garrick, Head of Coffee, WatchHouse, Christopher Jordan, Group Head of Coffee Caffè Nero, Jennifer Salamone, VP of Operations and Antonia Petaccio, Head of Coffee Training DC, at Tatte Bakery, we unpack the broad set of responsibilities that fall under the Head of Coffee role, from leading the sourcing and roasting to barista training and managing external partners.
