Meet the Team | Filey Distillery
Heather
If you’ve ever chatted with us, visited us, or clicked your way through our website… chances are you’ve already met Heather (whether you realised it or not!).
Heather is our go-to for all things sales — from working with trade partners to helping our lovely customers find their perfect bottle. She’s the friendly face and voice making sure everyone gets exactly what they need (and maybe a recommendation or two along the way 😉).
But that’s just the start…
Heather is also the one bringing the experience to life. She leads our tours with energy and enthusiasm, manages our website to keep everything running smoothly, and is constantly dreaming up new ideas — from cocktail schools to exciting vodka tours and beyond.
If something new and fun is happening here, there’s a very good chance Heather is behind it.
In short: sales superstar, experience creator, and all-round powerhouse.
We honestly don’t know how she fits it all in — but we’re very glad she does ✨
Neil
If you’ve spotted us at a food festival, chatted to someone about stocking our spirits, or discovered us in a new bar… chances are you’ve met Neil.
Neil is our man on the ground when it comes to sales, always out and about building relationships and getting our spirits into brilliant bars far and wide. He’s passionate about what we do, and even better at getting other people excited about it too.
You’ll rarely find him sitting still — if he’s not visiting venues and bringing new partners on board, he’s likely pouring samples and flying the flag for us at food festivals and shows.
In short: connector of people, champion of great spirits, and the friendly face spreading the word wherever he goes.
If you see Neil out and about, make sure to say hello (he’ll probably already be halfway through telling you about our gin)
