Full Time

  Good Pair Days (http://www.goodpairdays.com)

  Remote, England

Good Pair Days is a 6 year old online wine+ business based in Australia that prioritises customer happiness and wine education. We're a tech-focussed retailer with big growth ambitions. We love wine, we love our members (obsessively) and we love finding ways to surprise and delight them.

We're expanding to the UK before the end of 2021 and need an organised, articulate, hard working wine expert to help grow our amazing range of wines and tell our adoring community all about them.

You'll be a great fit if you're growth minded, love accountability and autonomy, have an empathic nature, love solving problems and thinking independently and last but not least willing to pull your sleeves up and join a hard working, high performance team culture. The above are also our team values... so if you were wondering what it's like to work with us, there you have it!

Skills

  • Your written communication skills are approaching expert level. Whether it's internally, dealing with suppliers or writing amazing wine content for our readers, you capture our brand voice and offer clean copy on time.
  • You're highly analytical by nature, and have a solid understanding of our company's financial goals and how your work affects this. You're one with excel and google sheets, especially the 'holy grail' - our wine supply sheet.
  • You're extremely well organised with systems, checks and backups for everything.
  • It goes without saying, you have an experienced and well-honed palate, and are excited about the varied styles of wines we offer.
  • Your connections within the UK wine industry are second to none - you know the game - the importers, the sellers, the writers and some of the drinkers.

Experience

  • Overall, highly trained wine professional, with astute ability to assess wine
  • Multiple years experience in a wine buying role, either on trade or retail
  • Experience with direct overseas imports a bonus

Other Pertinent Points

  • The role is remote, so you have the freedom to work from anywhere in the UK!
  • Start date is expected at mid September

 

Remuneration for this position is in the range of £45k - £60k, dependant on experience
