Careers

Cultured Marketing Manager,
A Refined Aesthetic Force For Fine Wine Importer.


(Company Confidential)

Italy’s spiced history for the back of a bottle, Chile’s Colchauga Valley foothills in 5 choice words or less. You paint pictures with words and tales with mere fonts. The brand is yours to seduce, to charm, to breathe life into. Tell them the story of the vintner who harvests religiously after midnight, the owner who dreamt the label name, the great- grandchildren who took the wine to meet International wine making standards over a hundred years later.

From Barcelona to Buenos Aires, BC’s Okanagan and the great tanks that ferment what we drink to celebrate, sulk, love and loathe – tell the story of the wine, tell the story of their grape.

Astutely intelligent company marketing and importing wine, requires the Marketing Manager of the century: a self directing, self sufficient, stilton loving, blackberry owning, cultured professional who lives or dies by their calendar, and dreams of a Shangri-La where u-brews are banned.

We’re looking for a particularly well turned out, sharply tuned someone. A concept happy MAC user with a ‘brand’ friendly background and a palette of creativity. Someone with discretion, energy and a refined streak like a robust Merlot. Capable of planning a wine tasting a week, designing a spring brand identity and a pointed advertising campaign to deliver.

Shiny You.
Your claim to fame: a creative powerhouse with a mean aesthetic streak.

o You have a solid 2-5 years in brand development, design and communications/marketing material development.
o A portfolio of fresh and relevant work examples
o Your background should be about BRAND BRAND BRAND. Media buying, developing point of sale material, collaterals and advertising for great companies.
o Should be comfortable with some travel and have enough social grace to mingle with our clients.
o Perhaps you have a degree or diploma in marketing or Communications? No matter, your work ethic and brilliant flair are far more important to us.

This is an intermediate career opportunity in Vancouver’s trendiest neighbourhood. Competitive salary, benefits worth writing home over, three weeks starting vacation and no impediment to grow.


Contact. Interested applicants please write a covering email/letter explaining what makes you so gosh darn special, tell us why you’re the right choice!

Attach a detailed resume outlining your work history and send to careers@managing.ca or fax to 604.931.3378.


Applicants that think Manolo’s are Italian doughnuts need not apply.

Thank you.
