Do you thrive when managing large, national accounts and being in the cut and thrust with large retailers?

Are you experienced in supporting retailers in a fast-moving consumer goods environment?

Do you want the autonomy to deliver results whilst dealing with challenges and output?

If so, take a look at this job local to Crewe in Cheshire. It might be just the one for you.

It’s working in the food sector, supplying to large national retailers who have ever changing demands and work to speed.

It’s not a job for the feint hearted but it is an excellent opportunity to join a business that has been around for a long time, isn’t too corporate and can be quite quirky.

In saying this, their expectations are still high, and they want someone who has a genuine desire to deliver best in class to their customers.

So, if you have experience within a national account manager role but are frustrated with the constraints that some of the larger businesses put on you, this one could fit you better.

The national account manager would be responsible for managing the delivery and growth of a set number of accounts across the North and supporting the development of the sales channel business plan with the Sales Director.

This is an involved role that encompasses many aspects of supporting the brand, the customer, the business engagement and achieving agreed output in line with set targets.

We are looking for:

  • Experience in either branded or private label food products in an FMCG environment
  • Track record of establishing and managing key account relationships
  • Strong negotiation skills
  • Ability to interpret data/stats to deliver forecasts to management
  • Confidence to manage complex business relationships
  • Motivated to deliver, with an innovative approach
  • Relationship builder with resilience and a positive approach

In return you can expect:

  • £45- £55k salary
  • Bonus
  • 28 days holiday, plus Bank Holidays
  • Car allowance
  • Laptop, phone
  • Contributory pension
  • Healthcare cash plan

Immediate start available for the right person.
