If you’re passionate about premium drinks, thrive on building relationships, and love seeing your brands come to life in bars and venues, this could be a bit of you.
I am recruiting for an On-Trade Business Development Manager to launch and grow the Australian Bitters Company in the UK — representing a brand that’s already a hit Down Under and ready to make waves here.

Join a growing, ambitious business that’s all about premium drinks and creative activation.
Own your region (London / South East) and take full responsibility for hitting your sales and brand KPIs.
Partner with independent bars, regional groups, and wholesalers to grow volume, distribution and visibility.
Be part of a small, passionate team where your ideas and energy make a visible impact every day.
