About the chance

Sullivans Cove Distillery is seeking a Private Client Manager to build and manage relationships with a select portfolio of collectors, high-value clients, and whisky enthusiasts. This is not a traditional sales role.

It is an opportunity to represent one of the world’s most awarded single malt whisky brands through storytelling, experience, and deeply personalised client engagement. You will play a key role in shaping how

our most valued clients experience the brand, from exclusive releases and allocations through to bespoke tastings and private events.

The role

You will develop and manage relationships with high-value private clients and collectors, curate and host exclusive tastings, events, and brand experiences, manage allocation and release of limited and rare whisky expressions, act as a trusted advisor to clients on their whisky journey, partner with internal teams across brand, production, and visitor experience, and identify and grow new high-net-worth client opportunities.

About you

We’re looking for someone who naturally builds trust, creates memorable experiences, and understands premium positioning. You may come from luxury spirits (brand ambassador, advocacy, prestige sales), fine

wine or premium beverage, high-end hospitality or private client roles, or luxury brands such as automotive, hotels,



or private membership environments. You will bring proven experience working with premium or luxury clients,

exceptional communication and storytelling ability, confidence hosting events, tastings, and one-to-one experiences, a strong understanding of relationship-led sales rather than transactional selling, commercial awareness

with a highly personalised approach, and a passion for whisky or a genuine interest in premium spirits.

You will ideally already be connected within luxury and high-net-worth client environments, with an ability to leverage those relationships to grow a curated private client portfolio.

Why join Sullivans Cove

Represent a globally recognised, award-winning Australian whisky brand, work directly with rare and highly sought-after releases, build meaningful long-term relationships with a curated client base, enjoy autonomy to shape and grow a private client function, and receive a competitive salary plus bonus and unique industry perks.

How to apply

If you are passionate about premium experiences and building meaningful client relationships, we would love to hear from you. Apply via this link submitting your CV and a short cover note outlining your experience in luxury client engagement.
