Distillery Ambassadors - Visits (Edinburgh Gin) (Part-time)
Salary: £12.60 per hour
Location: Edinburgh
We are looking for charismatic individuals with a passion for gin and providing exceptional visitor experiences to join us as one of our prestigious Distillery Ambassadors!
Born in 2010, and distilled in the heart of our namesake city, Edinburgh Gin has established itself as a pioneer in craft and wonder-filled flavour. We have been consistently rated on Tripadvisor as one of Scotland’s top tourist attractions through an offering of innovative and engaging experiences. In December 2024, we opened the doors of our brand-new, state-of-the-art distillery nestled in the heart of Edinburgh’s Old Town at the Arches on East Market Street, where traditional craft meets innovation and we celebrate the art of gin-making amidst breath-taking views of Edinburgh’s skyline.
As we continue on this next evolution of our Edinburgh Gin journey, we are looking for kindred spirits to join us at this truly exciting time.
As part of our Visits team, you will bring our world-class spirits to life; communicating our stories and brand through the delivery of innovative tours, tastings, and events, providing exceptional visitor experience in a warm and friendly environment.
Who We Are Looking For…
As a Distillery Ambassador, you will share our passion and enthusiasm for our product, brand, and experiences, acting as a true advocate for Edinburgh Gin, with the visitor experience at the heart of all you do.
In this pivotal role, we are looking for an effective communicator who is a confident public speaker and able to engage with audiences (from small to large groups), using your own initiative and creativity to help bring our products and history to life, enhancing the visitor experience.
Our successful candidate will be a team player, who is also able to use their own initiative and has a positive work attitude. Our Distillery will be open 7 days per week, including regular weekend and occasional evening work, therefore we are looking for candidates who can be flexible in their approach. Previous experience in a similar role would be advantageous but not essential as full training will be provided.
Due to the nature of our roles, candidates must be 18 or over and also demonstrate that they currently have the required documents to live and work in the UK.
What We Will Provide You…
This is a permanent job opportunity with an hourly rate of £12.60. In addition, we offer a generous benefits package including enhanced annual leave, company pension scheme, and product discount to name but a few.
Our Distillery Ambassador roles are offered on an annualised hours contract meaning you will receive a guaranteed monthly income. We currently have part-time roles available offering contracts for 2 or 3 days a week, though there may be the opportunity to pick up additional hours through overtime.
Our Distillery Ambassador role is a varied and rewarding role so if this type of role excites you, we’d love to hear from you!
Please note, that along with your CV, you will need to answer some key questions and submit a tailored cover letter, clearly outlining why your skills and previous experiences are a perfect fit to what we are looking for.
Please note, this is an open application window therefore we may close the advert at any point depending on the candidate applications received, so our recommendation is that you apply early to ensure you don’t miss out!
