Guinness Recruitment for Various Graduate Positions

Guinness is a popular  dry stout beer that originated in the brewery of Arthur Guinness (1725–1803) at St. James's Gate, Dublin. Guinness  is based on the porter style that originated in London in the early 18th century and is one of the most successful beer brands worldwide. A distinctive feature  is the burnt flavour which is derived from the use of roasted barley. For many years a portion of the drink was aged to give a sharp lactic flavour, although Guinness has refused to confirm if this still occurs, possibly for secrecy. 1.External Job Title Marketing Director - Guinness Nigeria AutoReqId 18922BR Function Marketing Type of Job Full Time Country Nigeria External Job Description Guinness Nigeria  is a leading premium drinks company and is a very important international market for Diageo.
