Scarsdale Wine & Spirits is an independent, family-owned fine wine and spirits merchant located in the heart of downtown Scarsdale, New York. Since opening in 2024, we have quickly built a reputation for exceptional service, thoughtfully selected wines and spirits, and a highly personalized approach to helping our customers.

Our clientele is discerning and engaged. They range from collectors and enthusiasts to business professionals and families who appreciate knowledgeable guidance and a memorable shopping experience. We are not a conventional liquor store. We are building a modern fine wine and spirits shop where relationships, service, and product knowledge matter.

We are seeking an experienced wine professional for a part-time role centered on customer service and sales. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable recommending a Tuesday night Pinot Grigio, selecting wines for a dinner party, or discussing Burgundy, Barolo, or grower Champagne with knowledgeable collectors. Most importantly, we are looking for someone who enjoys people and shares our enthusiasm for wine.

We are a small team and operate very collaboratively. Our buyer, business manager, and ownership group are all actively involved in the business, and no job is beneath anyone. We all stock shelves, receive deliveries, help customers, set up tastings, and pitch in wherever needed. The atmosphere is friendly, supportive, and team-oriented, and we are looking for someone who wants to become part of that culture.
