Why this job matters

Our Cask Club isn't just about spirits - it's about stories. Each barrel tells one : of the guest who crafted it, the memories shared around it, and the place where it was born. As our Cask Club Manager, you'll be the keeper of that story. You'll connect guests to the magic of Heritage Distilling's craft, to the warmth of Ko-Kwel hospitality, and to the sense of belonging that keeps them coming back - for another bottle, another taste, another unforgettable experience.

This role is part sales, part storytelling, and all heart. You'll invite guests into an experience that goes far beyond the pour - showing them what it means to be part of something rare, local, and deeply personal.

Physical stuff to know

We've included the typical physical parts of the job here. If you need an accommodation to do the work, just let us know-we're here to support you.

This role involves standing and walking for extended periods, lifting up to 50 pounds (those barrels and boxes add up), and maintaining a polished presence in a lively tasting-room environment. Frequent bending, kneeling, reaching, climbing, and manual dexterity required. You'll need to be available to work evenings, weekends, and event hours will be part of the fun - because that's when the stories happen. It's important to stay calm and make good decisions under pressure, especially when dealing with stressful situations or upset people. Just a heads-up-the casino environment may expose you to secondhand smoke.

This is a quick summary of the main duties and requirements-it might not cover everything you could be asked to do.
