Title: Diageo about to launch "craft" beer?
Post by: Dunkel on June 25, 2014, 12:55:38 PM
Diageo are looking for Brand Ambassadors for Dublin, Cork and a few major cities in England.

Appears to me that they are about to launch a new range of beers. Anyone any info?

The beer bloggers are heading there on Friday for food and some samples. Might have something to report back then.

@ LordEoin  No, that was Pilsner Urquell

@ brenmurph Again no, the brewery (or more likely their agents in Ireland) pulled the campaign the day before it was due to start. And yes, very high criteria - I didn't even get an interview  >:(

That job would be right up my street if it was actually for a craft brewery.

did u read the job applicant  criteria?  25 grand a year....FFS can get that driving a bus 39 hours a week, even Stobarts pay nearly that for. Not sure who in their right mind would take on a job with that amount of responsibility, answerbility and accountability and flexibility for a measily 500 a week....and use own transport?
hands up who agrees with me?
