Exposure to one or more of the specialist sports retail chains would be advantageous.
Our client will consider applications from either experienced National Account Executives, or from capable Territory Managers looking for their first move into National Accounts ( although you should have at least some experience and understanding of managing multi-site retail accounts ), and in return for your hard work and dedication they will provide a basic salary of between £38,579 and £42,599 plus substantial bonus package and company car ).
The role is home based however there will be a substantial amount of travel nationwide, and you will be required to be in the office ( in Birmingham ) approx. once every three weeks. There may also be occasional travel to the parent company in Germany ( possibly once each year ).
