About James Bent
I am a passionate, values driven sales leader who strives to build lasting relationships. As a leader with over 18 years of management experience, I believe you can achieve best in class results and build an award winning culture by embodying a simple mantra: develop people, deliver results, and have fun. I live by a basic set of ideals which help me build authentic, lasting relationships, drive best in class results, and have the proper perspective while doing so. Those are to love others, raise the bar, and believe in something greater than yourself. Most recently I’ve joined the Virginia Distillery Company with the goal of building our brands and the American Single Malt category as we educate consumers and help them discover the most awarded ASM brand, Courage & Conviction and our newly released VDC American Single Malt which highlights our award winning Single Malt in a variety of finishes. If I can help you network or find your dream career within the alcohol beverage industry, I\'d love to connect. Cheers!
