  Majestic Wine

  Oct 2020 - Feb 2021

  Retail Sales Assistant

  I worked along side a fantastic team at Esher that really allowed me to find my feet within the Wine Trade. The busy Christmas period combined with an unusually busy start to the year meant I could develop some excellent knowledge of the vast range of Wines in store and begin to learn the techniques needed to successfully sell Wine. It was a very physical role but that was definitely not a bad thing over Christmas as my 'product education' went very well! Thoroughly enjoyed my time here and think Majestic is a superb company.

  Laithwaites Wine

  Feb 2021 - Feb 2022

  Wine Sales Advisor

  Working with the Wine Advisor Team based in Theale, I built up a strong client base and worked extremely closely with my consumers to ensure they were buying the right wines for them. I wanted to introduce my clients to new wines, new styles and different regions and really take them on a wine journey.There is always much more to a glass of wine than just the liquid. It can be an experience, a story or a memory, and it is so important to me that people explore the world of wine.This role was perfect for getting to understand consumers tastes and preferences and tailoring each conversation to be exactly what they needed.
