For employers and clients

You have a role to fill.

Retained and engaged search for wineries, vineyards, importers and suppliers. We map the market, approach passive candidates directly, and present a short, qualified slate rather than a stack of résumés.

WHY CLIENTS CHOOSE WINETALENT

Discretion, market knowledge and one recruit

Confidential by default

Conversations remain confidential, and confidential and replacement searches are handled with discretion.

One recruiter

Every search is run personally by the recruiter you meet on day one.

Market mapping

We map the market and approach passive candidates directly, not only those who are looking.

A short, qualified slate

A curated shortlist with résumés, interview notes and references, not a stack of résumés.

Compensation benchmarking

Market benchmarking and neutral negotiation support for both sides of the offer.

Lasting placements

WineTalent stays involved after the offer is accepted, because placements are made to last.

TWO WAYS IN

Begin with a search or begin with a conversation.

Two engagement structures, matched to the role and to the level of confidentiality required.
