ABOUT

VC Services is the name of the business, but our greatest asset is Vic.

Vic Cameron, after 23 years experience with Diageo (in a wide variety of roles), left to become a church minister, but also to start his own consultancy business. He is now in his 9th year of running his own consultancy firm, and recently completed his 30th anniversary of working in the whisky industry.

Vic was fortunate enough to gain vast experience with Diageo, and built up a superb network of contacts and colleagues through the years, and is continuing to widen this network as his own business grows and develops.
