The Worshipful Company of Butchers and City Livery Events

Join us on Friday 6 November for our Monthly Court Lunch, when we will welcome Steve Finlan, CEO of The Wine Society, a member-owned, not-for-profit wine retailer with more than 150 years of history.

Steve joined The Wine Society in 2019, bringing extensive retail experience from Marks & Spencer, Gap and Clarks, both in the UK and internationally. Since joining, Steve has focused on modernising and digitising the business while preserving its strong heritage and member-focused values.

His experience in retail leadership, innovation and transformation has helped The Wine Society navigate a rapidly changing market, including rising excise duties and increasing business costs, while continuing to deliver for its members.

We look forward to hearing from him.
