Philippe de Lur Saluces

After my Business Studies, I worked for 7 months as Sales Assistant at Louis Vuitton in London. I changed paths, initially wishing to work in the luxury industry, to work in the wine industry.

I stayed for over a year and a half with Uvine, an Internet-based wine exchange in London, where I was in charge of customer accounts and corporate development.

My tasks focused on online auction sales & promotions to increase traffic on the Website.

When the Company went into receivership, I was made redundant and looked for another position in the wine industry in London.

I now work for Fine and Rare Wines Ltd, one of UK's biggest wine brokers, as a Wine Consultant. I am in charge of a client portfolio I have to take care of and develop. Fine and Rare Wines mainly deals with high value wines sourced from 3,500+ different suppliers throughout Europe.
