Wine Rack has been synonymous with excellence in wine for many years. The first choice for wine lovers, our stores currently stock more than 350 different wines, including award-winning vintages and exclusive ranges such as Origin and Radcliffe’s.

We are absolutely committed to your career and ambitions, providing in-depth product knowledge training to all our people. At Wine Rack, graduates can be in a position to be running their own store within six months of joining us.

That’s managing a team of people, being fully responsible for the profit & loss account for the store, driving sales and maximising performance by providing exceptional customer service. Our leading bespoke training will build on your knowledge, shaping you into a wine specialist to rival the best in the business.

You’ll enjoy plenty of product exposure – including wine tastings, potentially visiting vineyards and suppliers, supplier tastings, wine fairs and master classes at various tasting events sponsored by the company or suppliers. We also run an ongoing incentive programme and the winners are given the opportunity to visit wine regions across the world. So you can discuss the finer points of wine with our well-versed customers, make personal recommendations and feel an in-depth affinity with every one of our products. Almost as if you’ve trodden the grapes yourself! See the ‘rewards’ page for more details. We also offer continued career progression, potentially into Head Office roles.

Ideally you’ll already have had previous experience in a retail environment during university holidays - but most important is your proactive, energetic style and can-do attitude. Because you can do plenty at Wine Rack. We’re comfortable to allow skilled, entrepreneurial Managers take free rein and run the business as if it’s their own.

If you can deliver professional service with the personal touch and are both results and people focused, Wine Rack can offer excellent career development potential in an environment ideally suited to the wine enthusiast. Get ready to taste it.
