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).
Great responsibilities that have the right level of challenge and support to grow
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.

Diageo stands proud to be the world's largest spirits business owning brands Johnnie Walker, Smirnoff, Gordon's and our homegrown hero Bundaberg Rum.
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.
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.
