Senior Buyer

£21 - £24.2 per hourEstimated
Full-time

Who we are

Winedrops is the world's fastest growing wine club. Our mission is to make great wine more affordable & easier to discover.

We have 50,000 members across the UK and the US. This is an exciting opportunity to join a growing team managing a large buying budget across multiple geographies, with huge amounts of freedom and responsibility.

What you'll do

You'll sit within our buying team, reporting to our Head of Buying, and own the hands-on work of getting great wines in at great terms. That means:

  • Building new producer and supplier relationships, and being out in the market hunting for wines that are both exciting and commercially sharp
  • Negotiating hard on price, terms, and exclusivity
  • Growing our own-label and exclusive range — the strategic centre of our business
  • Sourcing the flagship brands, sought-after appellations, and highly rated wines that members want to buy
  • Owning the commercial outcomes of the wines you bring in: margin, spend, sell-through, and stock health

How we measure success

Everyone on our buying team shares the same three goals, and each person owns specific levers within them. For this role, you'd be accountable for:

  • Growing contribution margin — through own-label and exclusives, negotiating better terms, smart pricing, and cutting unnecessary cost out of packaging, storage, and last mile
  • Lifting what members spend — by landing flagship brands, building the right range and format variation, and supporting personalisation and remarketing with the right wines
  • Keeping stock healthy — buying desirable wines in the correct volumes so stock valuation stays lean

Who we're looking for

  • A top performer in a similar role — ideally a mid-level or senior buyer in grocery/ecommerce/beverage, or someone on the supplier/distribution side ready to move into buying
  • Strong relationship-builder and confident negotiator
  • Commercially minded, with the common sense to make good calls and the drive to take the initiative
  • A strong degree from a good university
  • Bonus if you have a genuine interest in wine (we'll fund your further education here)

What we offer

  • Top-end salary for wine world
  • Huge freedom and responsibility from day 1
  • Opportunity to impact real customers directly

Other nice bits

  • Free WSET training
  • Unlimited personal development budget
  • Free wine, team dinners, and trips abroad
  • Work from anywhere, 4 weeks a year
  • Free dinner if you're in the office past 8pm
  • London office

If any of this sounds up your street, we'd love to hear from you.
