Spirit Supply – Cooper
Since the first drop of Glenfiddich flowed through the stills on Christmas Day 1887 in Dufftown, we at William Grant & Sons have been proud to rely on the trusted skills of our Coopers. We’re now looking for a Time Served Cooper to join our high performing team to continue the tradition and to deliver the high standards that drive our global success.
