Check out our latest BurgerFuel ad and you might think the featured talent must have been carefully selected from a casting agency. Well, they were carefully selected because of their awesomeness, for sure, but from within the BurgerFuel fam. The bunch of nonchalantly cool faces you'll be seeing on your screens are all store and head office staff members, as well as some very special Friends of the Fuel. But more on them later.
One character in particular stands out, with her head-chef-meets-rock-band-front-woman vibes. Lauren, a hard-working store manager from the BurgerFuel Hataitai store, epitomises our peoples’ down to earth, yet rebel spirited nature. Lauren is, put simply... rad. Like so many of our staff that we come across, we dug her individuality and laid back, yet confident personality. We wanted to learn more...
Lauren was born in the UK in a small town called East Preston, on the south coast. She moved to Aotearoa as a 12-year old and lived in Lower Hutt, moving to Kapiti when she was in high school. Free spirited by nature, Lauren has been flatting since 18 and now lives with partner, Jackson, and cat, Chilli.
Lauren’s BurgerFuel journey started 4 years ago and she brought with her 6 years of valuable hospo experience, after having previously worked for another restaurant chain. Her family were regular visitors to the Fuel and she loved the energy of the place - she can even recall her old order, the Beetnic, no cheese. Old school.
