In this newly created role, Jamie will be responsible for connecting new accounts with Mangrove UK brands and promoting their growth and development in both the on-trade sector and independent retailers.
Joining from Armit Wines in London where he was managing accounts for their Italian and French investment grade wine, Jamie brings experience and enthusiasm into Mangrove UK. His initial focus will be on central and south London where he will be working closely with 5-star hotels and Michelin-star restaurants.
While at university Jamie passed his WSET Level 2 Award in Wines and Spirits and has a passion for the drinks industry.
Jamie said:
From my previous work, and extensive worldwide travel I have been fortunate to dine in some of the most incredible restaurants. This has fed my appreciation of delicious drinks and flavours, be it in drinks or food, and helped me understand which brands fit for each venue. I love working closely with people who share my love of all things flavour.
Nick Gillett, Mangrove UK MD added:
