National Account Manager

A fantastic opportunity has arisen at a leading FMCG food business based in Sussex! This role will be managing one of the top 4 grocery customers and would suit someone stepping up from a National Account Exec level. There is a requirement to be 4 days in the office.

Key responsibilities:
  • Conceive, construct and implement yearly joint business plans
  • Be responsible for budget management, promotions and margin
  • Work cross functionally with trade marketing, commercial strategy and brand management
  • Be responsible for sell through of NPD and new brand launches
  • Mentor junior team members


This role does require a candidate on an upward curve in their career who can keep progressing up to managerial level. Someone at NAE level will be considered, or a current National Account Manager. Strong interpersonal, analytical and negotiation skills are all key to success in this role.
