A NEW manager arrived at Waitrose supermarket in Great Malvern this week.

Scott Whittaker has worked for Waitrose for the past 17 years, beginning his career at shops in East Anglia before managing a store in Longfield, Kent.

"I'm delighted to get this opportunity to manage such a pretty shop. The views from the car park are quite something," he said.

"I look forward to meeting many of my new customers over the next few weeks and would be delighted if they wish to take a few minutes out of their day to chat."

Mr Whittaker is married with two young girls and is currently looking for a house in the area.
