How to Find Wine Industry Jobs on WineBusiness Winejobs

Updated

WineBusiness's Winejobs section is the job board for the wine industry, and it splits into two tracks: an Employers track for posting and editing jobs, and a Job Seekers track for searching listings, receiving new-listing emails, and managing a profile. To use it, go to the Winejobs section of winebusiness.com, choose the Job Seekers options, search or browse the most recent listings, and set up email alerts so new postings reach you instead of you refreshing the page.

Start at the right entry point

The homepage lists Winejobs in the main navigation alongside News, Grapes & Bulk Wine, Events, Buyer's Guide, and WineBusiness Monthly. Once inside Winejobs, the page presents two columns of actions:

Track Options shown
Employers Post or Edit a Job; Review Your Job Applications; Receive HR Monthly Newsletter
Job Seekers Search Job Listings; Receive New Listings via Email; Create or Edit Your Profile; Go to My Winejobs Account

If you only want to look for work, stay in the Job Seekers column. The employer options are for companies hiring, so posting a job is not part of a job search.

Search and read the listings

The Job Seekers flow starts with Search Job Listings. The board also surfaces a "Most Recent" block on the Winejobs page, where each entry shows the job title, the company, the posting date, and the city and state. That block is the fastest way to see what is new without running a search.

When you search, use the details that appear in each listing as your filters:

  • Job title — the role name as the employer wrote it.
  • Company — useful if you are targeting specific wineries or suppliers.
  • Location — city and state, which matters because wine jobs cluster in specific regions.

A practical approach is to search broadly first, note which titles and companies recur, then narrow by location. If a search returns nothing, widen the location before assuming there are no openings.

Set up new-listing emails

The Receive New Listings via Email option is the feature that turns the board into an ongoing pipeline. Rather than checking the site repeatedly, you subscribe to alerts and let new postings arrive. The page also offers a Receive New Listings via Email link in the Grapes & Bulk Wine section, so keep the two separate — the jobs alert is the one tied to Winejobs.

After subscribing, verify that alerts are actually arriving. If you stop seeing them, check your subscription status and spam folder before concluding that no jobs were posted.

Manage your profile and applications

Create or Edit Your Profile sets up your job-seeker information, and Go to My Winejobs Account is where you review activity. The homepage's MY WINEJOBS link ("Looking for a job? View your Winejobs activity") leads to the same place. Use the account area to confirm which jobs you have applied to and to keep your profile current, since employers reviewing applications see what you have entered there.

Account and access notes

The site distinguishes members from non-members: "Not a member? Create an Account," and members receive a free subscription to the Daily News Email, described as reaching 30,000+ daily readers. The page also carries SUBSCRIBE/RENEW links. The available page information does not state whether a Winejobs account or job alerts require a paid subscription, so treat membership and newsletter access as separate from the job board until you confirm on the sign-up screen.

Common sticking points

  • Searching in the employer column. Posting or editing a job is an employer action; job seekers should use Search Job Listings.
  • Too narrow a location. Wine regions are concentrated, so a tight radius can hide relevant roles. Broaden the area, then filter.
  • Assuming alerts are on. Subscribing once does not guarantee delivery; confirm the subscription is active and check filters.
  • Stale profile. If your My Winejobs profile is out of date, update it before applying so employers see current information.

For industry context while you search, the same site carries news, events, and a stock index of wine companies, which can help you identify employers worth targeting.
