Edinburgh, United Kingdom The Whisky Shop Full time

The Whisky Shop is the largest specialist whisky retailer in the UK with 20 stores.

We have had a presence in Edinburgh since 1992 and as we celebrate our 30th anniversary year we are planning to open our 3rd store in the City, within the highly fashionable Multrees Walk. This shop will showcase some of the rarest whisky available and we require specialist retailers with an enthusiasm for Scotch Whisky to help us make it a success from the very start. We aim to open late October but training within our other two locations will be offered prior.

We are looking for enthusiastic individuals to join our growing team.

Dedication to retail and great customer service is above all the requirements we are after, therefore experience in a similar speciality retail or customer services environment is beneficial.

An interest, knowledge or appreciation for Whisky, in particular Scotch Whisky would be a benefit but you will receive adequate training on product knowledge so this is not essential.

As well as offering great customer service the following tasks will be expected of you
- Operating tills, (including cash handling)

Merchandising, displays including windows

Stock replenishment

Dealing with deliveries, ( which can include manual heavy lifting),

General housework to ensure the shop always looks in good order.

We also operate a mail order service, Click & Collect service and a Whisky Auction and some training on these areas will be provided.

Other key attributes include
- flexibility (we trade seven days per week)

Confidence

Reliability, (timekeeping)

Eagerness to learn

The Whisky industry is a great sector to be in and to be able to progress within personally either with ourselves, a growing retail business or within the wider industry, which can lead to global opportunities.
