I am currently focussing on learning the production lines, and starting three projects for the business (to do with waste, implementing a system and quality).

I own a territory and am an account manager for all independent bottle shops, bars, and restaurants in that area (Sydney Northern Beaches). There is a lot of selling, contract negotiation, relationship management, and admin in this role.

Pros and cons of working at Diageo

Pros

  • What is great about my workplace is the people, and that every day is different!

  • They are very flexible, as long as you complete what is required!

  • I have been well looked after and supported in being trained up and coached in new tasks and responsibilities.

  • There are options and opportunities for promotions and career progression, especially for the supply chain side of the business!

  • There are outreach things and groups here.

Cons

    • Sometimes, because there is a lean headcount, there are a lot of tasks and projects, and sometimes you may not be well set up for success.

    • Yes, Huntingwood is not the easiest location (okay if you can drive, but hard to get to by public transport!).

    • Bonuses were confusing, only because it was a formula and seemed complicated in how it was calculated.

    • Maybe more clarity in the different rotations and structures earlier on!

    • Because of a lean headcount, it can be challenging to get sufficient support.
