Vintage Lab Tech

Pernod Ricard Winemakers is New Zealand's Premier Wine and Spirits Company, leading the way in everything we do. At Pernod Ricard, we maintain an exceptional focus on premium products, as well as results.  

Hawke’s Bay is the birthplace of quality New Zealand Red Wine. Church Road embraces Old World winemaking philosophies with one arm, and technological winemaking advancements with the other. This all begins with the fruit grown in Hawke’s Bay. We are passionate about this wine region and producing the best possible fruit quality. 

We are gearing up for another fantastic vintage and would like to extend a warm welcome for those that have the same passion for quality wine, to join our award-winning Church Road Winery Team in Hawke’s Bay (Napier).

We are looking for a Vintage Laboratory Technician to join our team for Vintage 2025 season. Our vintage generally runs from late February-April, and the duration of employment may vary due to vintage conditions. This position will be offered on a Full Time, Fixed Term basis.

Who are we looking for?

• Ideally, you will have previous experience; one or two prior vintages under your belt would be great or working in a similar role.

• You will have knowledge of laboratory equipment and knowledge. This, coupled with a good understanding of vintage operations or a demonstrated willingness to learn and an interest in winemaking/lab operation, means you could be just the person we are looking for. 

• Previous laboratory experience is preferable.

• We are looking for individuals who can work long hours and are prepared to complete a clear pre-employment drug and alcohol test.

What we offer:

• Competitive pay and stunning location

• An opportunity to work at an award-winning winery in New Zealand

• Great leadership from our on-site managers and well-experienced team

• Excellent induction and training

We are passionate about making great wine; our warm and friendly team are ready to show you why, and to welcome you on-board!
