Meet the Team

The Tanners Team

Tanners is a family-owned business with a strong family ethos that extends throughout the company. We employ about 115 people, bolstered with extra staff in the run-up to Christmas. At the core is a team of long-serving employees with a dozen having completed more than 30 years of service. At the same time, we regularly welcome fresh faces, bringing enthusiasm and talent – whether straight from education or from other companies within and beyond the wine trade.

Many of our staff begin with a keen interest in wine, food and travel. All are encouraged to take their Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) exams. Currently, around a dozen members of our team hold the WSET Diploma qualification, which is just one level below the prestigious Master of Wine.
