Cape Byron Distillery – home of Brookie’s Gin and Cape Byron Whisky – is searching for a high-performing Sales Executive to lead growth across South East Queensland.

This is not a junior role. We're looking for a commercially minded operator who understands the local market, has strong existing relationships across on- and off-premise, and is ready to make a real impact with one of Australia’s most awarded independent distilleries.

About the Role

Own the SEQ territory – from Brisbane to the Gold Coast and surrounds.

Manage and grow a portfolio of key on-premise venues, independent retailers, and national wholesale accounts.

Execute customer growth plans, tastings, and in-store activations that drive pull-through and brand visibility.

Launch and scale exciting new releases – including limited-edition whiskies, new RTDs, and our innovation pipeline.

Report directly to the Head of Sales, with support from the marketing/trade team.

What We’re Looking For

3+ years’ experience in liquor sales – spirits highly preferred; premium wine or RTD experience considered.

A proven track record of hitting sales targets and building strong trade relationships.

Confident in both new business development and key account management.

Strong understanding of the QLD on- and off-premise landscape.

Highly organised, self-motivated, and thrives with autonomy.

Bonus points for bartending or ambassador experience.

What’s in it for you

competitive base salary + super + car package + bonus (from $107,500 to $120,000 for the right candidate).

Staff spirits allocation and regular visits to our Byron Bay distillery.

Work with a values-driven, B Corp-certified business passionate about sustainability and flavour.

Be part of a tight-knit, fast-moving team with national growth plans.

Opportunities to grow your career as the business scales.
