Simon Long Work Experience Details
  • Shambles Kitchen
    Owner
    Shambles Kitchen Jun 2013 - Present
    28 Shambles, York
    Rebranded/ repositioned a failing juice bar to focus on food, using street food events and highly localised face-to-face marketing to gain a core following that was quickly followed by national coverage. Catering outdoor events and growing the wedding side has quadrupled the turnover.
  • York St John University
    Associate Lecturer
    York St John University Sep 2014 - Jul 2015
    After delivering a few Marketing lecturers at the University over the past couple of years, we decided to go one further and launch a student run smoothie bar on campus. I teach how to plan and run a small business using this as a living case study. We're covering location selection, financial management accounting, Guerrilla Marketing, social media marketing.

  • Xing Education
    Co-Founder, Director
    Xing Education 2008 - 2014
    Enterprise days and student-run smoothie businesses in schools. We use our own experience of running a high street smoothie business to inspire and train young people to manage a profit making business in their school. Our first school has been a huge success in an area of social deprivation. We're now looking for equally forward thinking schools to join the next phase and sponsors to help with funding.
  • Xing Smoothies
    Co-Founder, Director
    Xing Smoothies Jul 2006 - Jul 2013
    Healthy fast food and drinks that make you feel good. They don't taste too bad either. Myself and Phil started the business on campus after finishing uni. We have visited lots of events and currently have a cocktail stall at York Racecource. We opened out first high street outlet at 28 The Shambles, York, in 2009.I have organised and managed; successful product and shop launches; PR and marketing campaigns; and a re-brand from smoothies to 'feel good food'.

  • York Business Week
    Organising Committee Member
    York Business Week Apr 2011 - Apr 2012
    After speaking alongside Claire Young to a smaller than expected secondary school audience during York Business Week 2010, I was asked by organiser/champion Nick Eggleton to lend a hand in promoting the 2011 event. My ideas have included the city-wide apprentice day for local businesses and organisations. As well as the school roadshow where I volunteered to speak at as many schools in the city as possible during business week 2011.
