Love wine? Even better—love how it’s made?

Every outstanding bottle has a story. Harvest is where that story begins.

At Azhadi Vineyards, we’re looking for energetic, curious, hardworking people to join our cellar team for the 2026 harvest. If you don’t mind purple hands, early mornings, late nights, and the occasional sticky pair of boots, you’ll experience one of the most exciting seasons in the wine world—working alongside our Senior Winemaker to craft wines that will be enjoyed for years to come.

The Azhadi Group owns and operates a collection of premium wineries throughout the Okanagan Valley. We believe exceptional wines begin with exceptional people. Gratitude, curiosity, craftsmanship, and genuine hospitality guide everything we do, creating an environment where people are valued, challenged, and inspired to grow.
