Vintage Cellar Hand - Fairhall

About Us
Excitement is growing at Indevin as we gear up for the most exhilarating time of the year: vintage!
- Founded in 2003, Indevin is New Zealand’s leading producer of high-quality wine. Our grapes come from over 3,000 hectares of planted vineyards and blended in our wineries across three of the great New Zealand wine regions - Marlborough, Hawke’s Bay, and Gisborne - giving us a scale and consistency of supply unmatched in New Zealand wine.
- We’re all about authenticity and transparency so rather than bombard you with corporate jargon– here’s the real Indevin:
- We’re a good ol’ Kiwi company who is proud to be a wine industry leader and we have years of hard work to thank for it
- Our business is proudly spearheaded by the Villa Maria Brand
- We take our work, but not ourselves, too seriously
- We work with people from all over the world because our diversity makes us stronger
- We’re very passionate about what we do. We love wine, sharing our knowledge and making Indevin an inspiring place to work
The Role
Vintage 2025 is fast approaching and we’re getting ready! We’re on the hunt for Cellar Hands to join our vintage team at our Fairhall Winery in Marlborough!

You'll make great friends (it'll feel like family by the end), good money, learn new skills and make incredible memories. That's just a taste of what you can look forward to as part of our vintage crew.
As a part of our Vintage team, you will help to get all the grapes in and processed into wine so we can get it out the door to NZ and international shelves. We have a range of exciting opportunities to apply for!
- Perhaps you have no winery experience but have always wanted to do a vintage, well we have a role for you!
