A PIONEERING community-owned distillery based in Dingwall is looking for fresh blood to help it take the next step amid “phenomenal support from the local community”.

GlenWyvis Distillery, which claims to the world’s first 100 per cent community-owned, fully sustainable facility of its kind, has 3600 members, the majority living locally.

Established in 2015, this year will see the milestone release of its first whisky, a three-year-old single malt, which has already sold out via pre-order.

Speaking about the search for new directors, the chairman of the board, David Graham, said: “We are particularly keen to bring in new directors who have professional expertise and experience in sales and marketing to the whisky and spirits trade; commercial legal work; information technology; and community development.

“If you have the skills, experience, energy and enthusiasm, please apply to help us grow the business.

“We had phenomenal support from the local community in and around Dingwall when we established the distillery back in 2015 and I’m convinced there is a wealth of talent on our doorstep that we could tap into.

“I really hope that local residents, with appropriate business experience, will be inspired to join the team as we look to take the distillery forward.

“There are exciting times ahead and it would be great to have new people on board to be part of that journey.”

Those wishing to apply are encouraged to contact the GlenWyvis Distillery team at info@glenwyvis.com.
