About the role
Make great beer. Build a great team. Help shape what comes next.
We’re looking for a Head Brewer to lead brewing and liquid production at our Brisbane brewery. This is a hands-on leadership role for someone who combines deep brewing knowledge with strong people leadership, commercial thinking and a relentless focus on quality.
You’ll own the journey from recipe and raw materials through brewing, fermentation, maturation and release, ensuring every product is safe, consistent, efficient and something the team is proud to put its name to. You’ll also help expand what the site can deliver across BrewDog beers, alcohol-free products, RTDs, customer brands and new beverage innovation.
BrewDog Australia brings together a Brisbane brewery, national wholesale and FMCG customers, hospitality venues and a growing contract-manufacturing platform. Backed by Tilray Brands, we combine local ownership and speed with international brewing, beverage and supply-chain capability. We’re growing beyond a traditional craft brewery, while keeping product quality and great beer at the centre of what we do.
What you’ll own
• Lead the brewing team day to day: set clear priorities, plan shifts, coach and develop people, and build a safe, accountable and collaborative culture
• Own brewing and liquid-production performance from raw materials through fermentation, maturation, filtration, carbonation and product release
• Deliver the production plan safely, on time and to specification, working closely with Supply Chain, Packaging, Quality, Sales and Marketing.
• Set and improve brewing standards, recipes, SOPs, process controls and production records across beer, alcohol-free beer, RTDs and other beverages
• Lead liquid quality, sensory performance, yeast health, microbiology and continuous improvement, supporting the site’s HACCP and GFSI programme
• Own brewing yields, losses, raw-material usage and liquid COGs; identify practical improvements that strengthen quality and profitability.
• Lead production input into NPD, trials and scale-up, turning ideas into products that can be made consistently and commercially
• Partner with Engineering and Packaging on plant reliability, maintenance priorities, capacity planning and future brewery investment.
• Build strong relationships with suppliers, technical partners, regulators and BrewDog/Tilray colleagues around the world
What you’ll bring
• Significant production-brewing experience, including leadership responsibility in a commercial brewery or comparable beverage-manufacturing environment
• A relevant brewing, science or engineering qualification, or equivalent practical expertise developed through your career
• Strong technical knowledge across brewing, fermentation, yeast management, filtration, carbonation, CIP, sensory and product quality
• Experience leading, coaching and developing a production team, with the confidence to set standards and hold people accountable fairly
• Experience with production planning, quality systems, supplier management, KPI reporting and cost control
• A practical, hands-on approach: you’re comfortable solving problems on the brewery floor as well as planning, analysing and communicating
• A commercial mindset and the ability to work cross-functionally, balancing product ambition with safety, quality, capacity, service and cost
• Curiosity about beer and beverages beyond beer, with an appetite to keep learning and improving
The kind of leader we’re looking for
You take ownership. You care deeply about the product and the people making it. You’re calm when plans change, structured when the operation gets busy and honest when something needs fixing. You lead from the front, communicate clearly and create an environment where people can perform, learn and speak up.
Why join us?
• A genuine opportunity to shape the next phase of BrewDog Australia’s brewery and beverage platform.
• A broad product portfolio spanning craft beer, mainstream beer, alcohol-free products, RTDs and customer brands.
• The backing and technical reach of an international beverage business, combined with a local team that can move quickly.
• A visible leadership role with real influence over product, people, quality, capability and future investment.
Practical details
• This is a full-time, brewery-based role in Murarrie, Brisbane.
• The role requires flexibility around brewery operations, including occasional early starts, late finishes or weekend support when production demands it.
• Applicants must have the right to work in Australia.
