Investment Analyst Writer

VCL Vintners is a leading alternative investment company specialising in casks of spirits — with a particular focus on Scotch whisky casks. From our headquarters in The Shard, London, we provide unique investment opportunities backed by in-depth industry insight, market intelligence, and a commitment to high-quality investor communications.

We’re growing rapidly and looking for a talented Investment Analyst Writer to help us shape the voice of whisky investment through clear, compelling, data-driven content.

This is a hybrid role that blends analytical thinking with high-quality written communication. We're looking for someone who is comfortable sourcing, compiling, and analysing data on their own — turning it into engaging reports, investor updates, and thought-leadership pieces tailored for our investor base.

The ideal candidate will have a strong understanding of finance and markets, with a genuine interest in the global spirits industry, particularly Scotch whisky.
