I work for: Ruth Rogers and Rose Grey

Article Abstract:

Ruth Rogers and Rose Grey, who run the River Cafe in London, England, are very good employers, according to Alex Colman, their personal assistant. They took the time to explain as much as possible when she first started working for them, and they were very supportive when she was experiencing problems in her personal life. Her main role is assisting Rogers and Grey, rather than protecting them from the outside world. She welcomes the opportunity to work in a stimulating environment where changes are taking place all the time.
