We are pleased to announce the newest member of the Atlas Team,
Gabriel Walmsley, who joins us as Stock and Data Manager. With four years of industry experience, Gabriel brings to Atlas a keen understanding of reserves management. It has been incredibly exciting to have our team grow from strength to strength over the past few years; Gabriel's recruitment is in line with our commitment to providing our clients with the highest degree of security, transparency and analysis of their holdings.
After finishing a degree in chemistry at University College London, Gabriel headed to New Zealand on his gap year; a trip that provided the opportunity to explore various vineyards and served to spark his interest in wine. Upon his return to London, he studied for, and passed, both his Level 2 and 3 WSET exams. He is currently studying for his WSET Diploma.
Prior to joining Atlas, Gabriel worked for another London-based wine merchant, first as a marketing assistant, then latterly in logistics as Customer Reserves Manager, a role in which his analytical and pragmatic approach added real value. Gabriel is Atlas’ latest recruit having joined in January 2017 to assume the role of Stock and Data Manager. At Atlas, he is responsible for monitoring all aspects of client reserves. Working closely with the team at Vine International, our cellarage partners, Gabriel ensures the accuracy of our stock and data relating to the 30,000+ cases of fine wine we have in our care. His mind for analysis has also led to him providing valuable input to Atlas’ sales team providing market analysis on client holdings.
