Episode 26: Claire Warner from Aecorn Aperitifs on the importance of knowing yourself, risk in the startup world, and coaching and mentorship

I’m so excited to present today’s interview with Claire Warner. Claire has worked in the drinks industry for over 20 years, starting her career as a bartender and moving into brand advocacy and education, and later liquid development and innovation.

Claire joined Belvedere Vodka and LVMH in 2003, and was appointed Head of Spirit Creation and Mixology in 2009. In this role, Claire led the development of all new Belvedere expressions, as well as creating the global educational programmes for Belvedere.

Claire joined the alcohol-­free world of Seedlip in 2018 as Head of New Brands, and is currently managing director for Seedlip’s sister brand, Aecorn Aperitifs.

In the podcast today we discuss:

  1. Claire’s career trajectory

  2. The importance of knowing yourself and following your authentic path

  3. Risk taking in the startup world

  4. The importance of coaching and mentorship

  5. And so much more...

Honestly I can’t tell you how much I loved this conversation with Claire, and I hope you get as much value from it as I did. Without further ado, please enjoy my interview with Claire Warner.
