Working culture, benefits and training

Culture

People. They’re at the heart of everything we do. We’re totally customer-focused and get to know each person who comes through our doors; that’s the level of service we pride ourselves on. And the same philosophy extends to our staff. Join us, and as well as great training and career opportunities, we’ll reward you with a tempting benefits package.

Training

We’ll make sure your skills and knowledge as kept as up-to-date as haute couture. When you first start you’ll take part in an induction programme. It’s a chance to find out more about the business, and a great icebreaker. From then on, we realise that everyone has different ambitions. If you choose to fast-track, some of the advanced training on offer includes management programmes, globally-recognised WSET (Wines, Spirits and Educational Trust) and specialist product courses including Cigar School and Whisky School. But whatever you want from a career with us, you’ll receive all the training and support you need.
