Job description

About the Company :

Established in 2025 following the merger of Accolade Wines and Pernod Ricard Winemakers, Vinarchy combines Vin (the French word for wine) with Archy (from the Ancient Greek word for leadership). Together, it means wine leadership.

Vinarchy is one of the world’s leading dedicated wine companies and home to an incredible range of global brands led by Hardys, Campo Viejo and Jacob’s Creek.

Our quality wines offer something for everyone and every occasion – each bringing its own unique story to the world. We craft wines in Australia, New Zealand, Spain and South Africa, with our global sourcing footprint also spanning premium grape growing regions in Italy, Argentina, France, the United States and Chile.

Vinarchy will redefine wine by meeting the fast-changing needs of our consumers with new formats, innovative products, and experiences that welcome all into wine for moments of celebration and connection.

It’s a place where passionate people can do their very best work, break new ground and redefine the industry they love.
