Job Description:

Denholm is delighted to partner with an independent rare whisky business to hire a Global Private Client Director to lead and execute the company’s commercial strategy.

Our client works directly and exclusively with world-class whisky brand owners and producers. They specialise in advising high-net-worth private clients, family offices, and funds on the acquisition, disposal, & verification of rare single malt whisky for collecting, drinking, and gifting. They provide clients with D2C sales, authenticity, provenance, and quality assurance. The company also offers additional services such as project management, verification, portfolio management, and whisky experiences.

The role is based on a hybrid home/office basis in the UK. The Global Private Client Director will identify, onboard, and manage ultra-high-net-worth individuals globally, focusing on rare whisky as a passion asset. This client-facing, entrepreneurial role requires a warm, knowledgeable individual with strong interpersonal skills and the confidence to close high-value cask and bottle deals through in-person advisory-based selling.

Candidates should have proven experience in selling to high-net-worth individuals and a deep interest in rare whisky and/or alternative assets. A track record of closing high-value deals and international experience, especially in Asia or the US, is preferred. The successful candidate will be able to develop and implement a global business development strategy.

In return, the successful candidate will receive a competitive salary along with generous commissions and bonuses.
