The Cairn Distillery looks to expand team in run up to opening

The Cairn, a new distillery from Gordon & MacPhail at the gateway to the Cairngorms National Park, is recruiting as it gets ready to open its doors this autumn.

The three positions are visitor experience assistant manager, visitor experience hosts and visitor food and beverage hosts.

Andy Kitchin, visitor experience manager at The Cairn, said: “This is a particularly exciting time for us as we take the final steps in preparation for our much-anticipated opening later this year - we are passionate about finding the right team who can set the tone and help them to grow both personally and professionally.”

The company is hosting a recruitment day on 6 June at The Grant Arms Hotel in Grantown on Spey.

The closing date for visitor experience assistant manager applications is 3 June 2022 at midday.

Last August, Gordon & MacPhail selected Scottish destination specialists Studio MB to design its new distillery visitor experience.

The company was commissioned to deliver all design and implementation stages for the project, from inception to completion, including narrative planning, content development, visitor experience design - including exhibition, interiors, graphics, audiovisual software, lighting design, script writing - and project management.

Studio MB is working alongside brand designers We Are Good, based in Glasgow, as well as NORR Architects and Morrison Construction, which are respectively creating the brand identity and the new distillery.

The new site comes in addition to Gordon & MacPhail's existing distillery, Benromach in Forres, which it bought in 1993 and re-opened in 1998.
