About Us 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.
The Role This is a hybrid role that blends analytical thinking with high-quality written communication.

What We’re Looking For * A strong writer with a data-led mindset and the ability to communicate complex topics clearly

* Experience in investment writing, financial journalism, research analysis, or a similar role

* Comfortable working independently without reliance on a broader analyst team
