About Distille
Distille Limited is a London-registered drinks importer and wholesale distributor, building a portfolio of distinctive European producers for the UK market. Our brands include a Czech heritage lager with roots dating to 1434, Portuguese citrus wines, and Italian artisan gin. We supply on-trade venues and independent retailers across the South East and Midlands, with an expanding portfolio and field sales operation launching in August 2026.
The Role
We are recruiting a part-time field sales representative to develop and manage accounts across Brighton, East Sussex, and the surrounding corridor. This is a territory-ownership role — you will be responsible for prospecting new accounts, securing listings, managing ongoing relationships, and driving reorder frequency across our full portfolio. On a day-to-day, you will be visiting pubs, bars, restaurants, and independent off-licences in person. You will present our range, conduct tastings where appropriate, negotiate listings, and ensure accounts are serviced consistently. You will report directly to the founder and work alongside a small team of territory reps across the South East and Midlands.
