National Account Manager Wholesaler/Catering

An incredibly exciting new position has become available with one of the newest and fastest growing drinks companies in the market. We specialise in stratospherically good smoothies and have recently won some of the most prestigious accolades in the industry from the Grocer and the ‘Free-from food awards’. We have incredible investment, drive and ambition and are looking for people to help catapult us to category dominators and beyond in the next 18 months.

The position is building on existing relationships with wholesaler/catering buyers, gaining new listings and cementing long lasting relationships. You will be managing these national accounts, developing promotions, deciding on focused joint business plans and executing these with the tact and skill necessary with these key, cornerstone partners. Keeping an eye on the competition is fundamental to building the strongest brand out there so having a wider FMCG knowledge and understanding is essential. Established relationships and successful negotiations with these accounts are highly desirable.

We need hard working winners in our company to succeed, people who go above and beyond, people willing to help out across the business, get stuck in and get results. We want people with the passion and energy to succeed, who have the ability to manage tough account relationships on a daily basis, mixed in with the talent to hunt down new business opportunities.

This is a position that only happens once in a company’s lifecycle and the opportunity to be in at this stage is something very few people get. Being in at the beginning of something big not only means you are pivotal in shaping the future of a mega brand but also you have the opportunity to get back what you put in, and then some! With proven awards and one of the most dynamic teams in the trade, this is the chance to say – ‘I was there at the start’.
