Managing a project is one thing. Delivering an exceptional experience for a client who is passionate about their own bespoke Scotch whisky is something entirely different.

It takes commercial awareness, organisation, confidence and attention to detail, alongside the ability to build trusted relationships with clients and suppliers.

We're looking for a Client Delivery Manager to join our team.

If you're organised, commercially minded and excited by the opportunity to build a career in an ambitious, fast-growing business, we'd love to hear from you.

You'll take ownership of client projects, working closely with our Sales, Creative and Operations teams to bring complex whisky projects to life.

You'll also play an important role in supporting the development of the wider team, with a clear pathway towards Head of Client Delivery as the business grows.
