UK wine importer Buckingham Schenk has appointed Emma Crowther as national account manager.
Crowther's role will focus on the on-trade, including the company's portfolio of exclusive wines such as Prosecco brand Bacio della Luna.
Crowther comes to Buckingham Schenk from Negociants UK, where she was responsible for both on-trade accounts and on-line customers.
She has worked in the wine trade for 13 years, including spells at both Lanson International and Peter Lehmann Wines.
Craig Durham, managing director at Buckingham Schenk, said: "We are delighted to have recruited Emma, she is a great fit for the team and we believe she will be invaluable to us with her experience of working within the on-trade sector."
