SCOTTISH Whisky bottle The Single Cask has expanded its senior team with the appointment of two new hires.
Both Jan Damen and Helen Stewart have taken on roles in the senior leadership of the firm with Damen heading up as general manager and Stewart taking the role of brand marketing manager.
The two are set to work together to help tell the story of The Single Cask and to take the company to the next level.
In line with this mission, the new hires came in celebration of ‘World Storytelling Day’.
The highly experienced pair bring with them a raft of industry knowledge spanning 40 years in the single cask spirits industry.
On his new appointment, Damen said: “Feeling the contagious passion and enthusiasm the small team here at The Single Cask have and, of course sampling some of their incredible whiskies, I knew instantly that I wanted to be involved in taking the company to the next level.
“It was an easy decision to take up the role of general manager at The Single Cask. We only bottle whiskies with the clear missions of exciting and entertaining our whisky drinking family, and to me that is what whisky is all about.”
Stewart said: “Drinking single cask whisky is an incredible experience, one that deserves to be shared and appreciated in imaginative ways.
“What I love about The Single Cask is the belief that the search for the ultimate dram never ends. There is no finish line. It’s such an exciting vision and drive.
“Being able to use my own whisky to connect, create conversations and leave lasting memories is an unbelievable opportunity and it’s a great time to be part of this dedicated team.
“Whisky should be fun. This is very much The Single Cask mantra, and whisky lovers should expect good times ahead.
“Working together with Jan, this has never been more true.”
