Job Details
I'm working exclusively with one of the most successful and fastest growing start-ups of the past 10 years. I'm searching for a grocery National Account Manager to take control and nurture the business’ most pivotal grocery accounts.
They're a business producing a portfolio of better-for-you products into every major grocer, regional accounts, international and independent stores throughout the UK. They're still progressing through significant growth and are anticipating a busy and prosperous year ahead.
With this in mind, they've identified the need to recruit an entrepreneurial and ambitious National Account Manager to take full P&L responsibility for Tesco, Sainsbury’s, Waitrose and Co-op, manage three direct reports including an NAE (who will manage Boots, Ocado and Booths), and two interns.
This role is ideal for anybody happy to throw themselves in to a business environment where efforts and results are rewarded with swift career development opportunities.
The ideal candidate will come from a disruptive start-up environment, and will be classically trained. Experienced with ‘top 6’, you will need to be very analytical, have an excellent level of attention to detail and be confident in presenting/communicating at all levels.
Company
For over a decade now, Food Industry Associates Ltd have proven to be a recruiter of choice for ambitious SME food and beverage manufacturers across the UK. We don't recruit for the big corporates by choice. Instead, we choose to work with companies with personality, entrepreneurial flare (not process), looking to disrupt the market with cutting edge innovation to provide consumers with better, healthier choices.
Are you an early stage start-up struggling to find the right solution to help you gain your fist listings in a specific customer channel before you can raise the budget to employ somebody on a permanent basis? Maybe you know you need to source a commercial leader but aren't 100% clear in what format, or how to adequately incentivise somebody from a much larger business to join your mission? Come speak to us.
If you're a more established business looking to bring fresh talent on board to drive ambitious sales targets, source a creative innovator to help you drive in to new extended categories, or looking to strengthen in marketing / category terms, again, come speak to us.
We've a proven record in recruiting talent for an array of businesses, helping them source commercial talent to help them achieve their goals. From early stage sales talent through to equity-incentivised leadership roles, we've proven time and time again to find the right people for our clients at the first attempt.
How are we different to most of our competitors? Unlike most, we don't have as diverse a portfolio of clients we work with. However all those we do work with continuously come back to us whenever they next have another need. In our opinion successful recruitment is achieved when two businesses truly 'partner' and collaborate together. In our opinion the better we know you, the better we understand all the extra elements aside from simple skillset and experience to ensure the right 'fit' is identified at the first attempt. In our opinion, this is recruitment, done properly.
