Job Details

Welcome to New Amsterdam

New Amsterdam* Vodka is a premium vodka made from the finest quality grains, distilled five times for unparalleled smoothness and filtered three times to create a soft finish. We've recently sold more than one million cases of New Amsterdam Vodka in our first 12 months in the USA, making it the fastest spirits brand in history to do so. New Amsterdam has gained acclaim among industry insiders and consumers alike, enabling the brand to grow at a rapid pace in the USA and we're now looking to launch in the UK.

We're also proud to distribute E&J Brandy*, America's most award winning brandy. From international competition awards through to industry accolades, critics and connoisseurs have taken notice of E&J. Already well-established in the UK Impulse market, you'll be leveraging the success of E&J to ensure a successful launch for New Amsterdam.

So what actually is a Brand Specialist? Glad you asked, well your fun but challenging task is to raise awareness and drive sales of both New Amsterdam Vodka and E&J Brandy in the Impulse market. Driving sales volume, brand presence and availability, you will also be responsible for key promotional activity and trade support with key retailers. Your responsibilities will be varied from new customer visits to point of sale merchandising, hosting tasting events, to driving growth via trade days and the occasional crew-drive on a national basis.

Your ability to communicate and build influence quickly with new and existing customers will be pivotal to your success so we're looking for amazing relationship builders. Educated to degree level or equivalent you must be passionate and outgoing ideally with some sales exposure. We will also consider non-graduates with up to 4 years sales experience in a related industry. Motivated to over-achieve targets, you will have a commercial brain and previous impulse or cash and carry channel sales experience would be interesting.

New Amsterdam is the spirit of smooth and embodies the city of New York therefore all applicants must be able to do a flawless New York accent.**
