What we are looking for:

• Proven experience in the drinks industry, ideally within the premium/luxury sector.
• Strong understanding of the London on/off trade landscape, with a network developed over years of working in the UK’s capital city.
• A natural relationship builder - someone who loves meeting people and turning conversations into commercial wins.
• Someone who thrives in fast-growing, ambitious environments.
• Self-starter that wants to make a real difference to one of the UK’s fastest-growing cocktail brands.
• Commercially sharp and comfortable negotiating at both outlet and senior level.
• Full UK driving licence.

What we offer:

• £45-50k salary, plus £5k car allowance and 20% bonus linked to performance.
• Membership to Pavillion Club with access to all sites.
• Full private medical insurance through Vitality with perks for being active like free coffee, cinema tickets and an Apple Watch.
• A hands-on creative environment where your ideas can genuinely shape the brand's future.
• Generous cocktail allowance.

Why Edmunds?

Edmunds began with two brothers, a kitchen counter, and a belief that cocktails deserved better. Today, our team produces over a million cocktails a year from our 8k sq ft production house in Norfolk, with the same obsession and attention to detail that started in that very kitchen. With our new brand home in Fulham and a rapidly expanding sales team, you will be joining a group of people who genuinely care about what they do and the brand they are building together.

If you are passionate about premium drinks, thrive on building relationships, and want to help shape one of the UK’s fastest-growing cocktail brands, we would love to hear from you.

The process:

We will be accepting applications until 09/01/26. After that, we will hold first-round interviews online, followed by second-round interviews in person at our London office in Fulham. We will do our best to review and respond to every application before the deadline.

Equality, Diversity and Inclusion:

At Edmunds, we are fully committed to equality, diversity and inclusion and are committed to treating all employees with dignity and respect, regardless of background. All applications will be treated on merit, based on information provided through the recruitment and selection process and your suitability for the role.
