Wine Development Manager – Established Wine & Spirits Distributor - London - Up to £50,000 plus package
I am excited to be once again partnered with a leading Wine & Spirits business who are growing their London team. This business has built a strong reputation with an exceptional product range, strong producer relationships and an offering which allows full composite across almost all venues.
