Ian Macleod Distillers Ltd… ‘An international, entrepreneurial, brand-led, successful, sustainable and respected, family business’
We appreciate and value your interest in this opportunity with Ian Macleod Distillers. We are a fourth generation family owned and run spirits business and the proud owners of some of the world’s best loved brands including Glengoyne, Tamdhu, Rosebank, Smokehead and Edinburgh Gin.
We are looking for an experienced Distillery Operator to join our established Rosebank Production team on a full-time, permanent basis.
If you share our passion for whisky and love for the industry, combined with being a professional with positive attitude and good work ethics, and a desire to work as part of our small (but perfectly formed!) production team, this could be the perfect opportunity for you!
As Distillery Operator you will report to the Assistant Production Manager and Distillery Manager and be responsible for ensuring we produce high quality liquid in the time honoured traditions of Rosebank.
Key responsibilities include:
1. Meeting production targets and maintaining the distillation process and equipment to maximise performance.
2. Ensuring full compliance with all legal requirements and company standards.

Who We Are Looking For…
For this role, we are ideally looking for candidates with previous experience in a similar role within the whisky and spirits industry. Candidates should have breadth and depth of both practical and theoretical technical experience. The successful candidate will be a strong team player, working collaboratively with their colleagues to achieve common goals, whilst also having the ability to work independently, using their own initiative and making suggestions to improve processes.
The role will also involve the administration of documentation, and candidates must be computer literate and have experience using Excel and other technology and systems at work. An understanding of all statutory and company regulations relating to health, safety, HMRC and environmental issues is also desirable.

As this role will involve rotational shift working patterns and will require flexibility, it is a requirement for applicants to live within a reasonable commuting distance to the distillery and have regular access to their own transport. Candidates must also be 18 or over due to the nature of our roles and industry.
So… if you feel you have all the skills and experiences that we are looking for, combined with a positive attitude and passion for Rosebank, then we would love to hear from you!
