The opportunity you've been waiting for
The whisky industry has a romance to it. But behind every cask and client relationship, there's an operation that needs to run cleanly. This business is growing, and they know it. What they need now is someone who can build the infrastructure to match the ambition.
This is a broad, hands-on role sitting at the heart of a small but scaling whisky business. Reporting directly to the Managing Director, you'll shape processes, own compliance, and bring real commercial energy to a company that's still early enough in its journey to let you leave a mark.
How You'll Make Your Mark
You'll keep the operation moving and help build what comes next. Day to day, that means:
- Maintaining the Warehouse Management System, ensuring stock movements are accurate and up to date
- Preparing and submitting monthly HMRC reporting, including W1 documentation
- Producing weekly stock and warehouse utilisation reports for the MD
- Working with the Warehouse Manager to identify and implement operational improvements
- Building and owning the company CRM, managing existing contacts and developing prospective ones
- Keeping all due diligence documentation current, including EMCS checks, insurance, and customer records
- Developing company policies across health and safety, handling procedures, and the employee handbook
- Supporting business development activity, from prospect engagement through to client visits across Scotland
- Attending industry trade events and representing the business externally
- Managing the company's LinkedIn presence and supporting the creation of marketing materials and service documentation
