Jack Glover joins Hill-Smith Family Estates

Family wine business Hill-Smith Family Estates (HSFE) has appointed Jack Glover as its new Executive Director - Marketing and Sales.

Glover will assume responsibility for Hill-Smith wine brands and drive its global marketing and sales strategies.

Glover joins HSFE after an extensive 20-year career in the wine industry.

He has served as Marketing Director – ANZ with Accolade Wines, where he held positions of Sales and Marketing Director – New Zealand and General Manager – New Zealand.

The appointment comes after a decision earlier this year to bring together the sales and marketing teams for its owned wine brands to align with the business's growth aspirations.

Hill-Smith Family Estates CEO Karl Martin said, "We are excited for the knowledge, expertise and passion for wine Jack will bring to our Executive Board and our marketing and sales teams."

"We believe the new structure places us in the strongest position to deliver on our long-term strategies, and Jack will play an important role in driving growth and value for our fine wine brands," said Martin.

Originating from Marlborough, New Zealand, Glover was one of twelve scholars invited to participate in the 2023 Len Evans Tutorial, and he is currently completing his Master of Wine studies.

Glover will officially join Hill-Smith Family Estates in December 2023.
