I run a business called Bloom and Crumb, and it is a cake business that provides majority wedding cakes, but I do some birthday cakes and corporate cakes as well. So my job role is to make sure that couples are have the best cake for their wedding day and also to make sure that for occasion cakes and corporate ordered cakes and the cake fits the beef perfectly.

My name is Jennifer Amankwa, and I’ve spent around 15 years working in Human Resources. I’m a Global HR Professional with multicultural experience across the UK, Canada and Ghana. My favourite areas of HR are inclusive talent acquisition, employer branding and workforce planning. I studied English at university and later completed a Master’s in Human Resource Management.

My career has taken me across Financial Services, Technology, Renewable Energy, Higher Education, Local Government and the Non‑Profit sector. In each space, I’ve partnered with senior leaders, strengthened recruitment operations and focused on delivering consistently excellent candidate experiences.

I currently split my time between London and Accra, and when I’m not working, you’ll probably find me doing Zumba, going for walks, reading or listening to music.
