Super-premium vodka brand Belvedere, owned by Moët Hennessy, has announced the launch of its worldwide “Dream Job” campaign. The successful candidate will be awarded the once in a lifetime job as a $100,000 Global Brand Ambassador role. Working alongside Head of Spirit Creation and Mixology Claire Smith, representing the brand on a global stage, the winner will travel the world educating bartenders on how best to enjoy Belvedere, and creating innovative and exciting cocktails.?
Bartenders, mixologists, and vodka enthusiasts from around the world will be invited to submit short videos to Belvedere Vodka’s official Facebook fan page showcasing their mixology skills, and demonstrating why they should be selected for the dream job.
After entries close on 15th October, a panel of experts will select a shortlist of UK and European semi-finalists who will compete in a series of cocktail-making and presentation challenges at an event hosted at a top London bar and judged by a panel headed up by a top industry name. Entrants will have to demonstrate their creativity and skills with challenges including creating ten Belvedere Vodka cocktails in ten minutes. ??
The top two semi-finalists will go through to the Global Final, taking place in Los Angeles on 15th December, with seven finalists from across the world appearing in front of a celebrity judging panel to be presented with the final challenge, before an overall winner is declared.??
Commenting on the “Dream Job”, Claire Smith, Head of Spirit Creation and Mixology for Belvedere Vodka said “We are thrilled to extend such a tremendous opportunity to so many talented bartenders and mixologists around the world; it is our hope that the competition not only unites those ?with a keen understanding of super premium vodka, but also inspires a higher level of innovation and creativity in cocktail creation that our new Global Brand Ambassador will help to ‘fine tune’ for our plans and projects next year.”?
