REWARDS: 40-50K (OTE 55K) BMW 3 Series Car, Laptop, Mobile

National Accounts led opportunity with a leading foodservice company


THE COMPANY:
We are one of the most established players within non food catering products and are currently one of the top performing companies within our sector.
Working for our company is all about selling a concept as opposed to purely selling a product range and it is this consultative approach to the foodservice sector which has earned us a loyal established portfolio of National accounts.
As a leading National wholesaler we are able to provide a one stop solution concerning foodservice disposables and are most well recognised for our bespoke packaging concepts which enable our key foodservice clients to maintain control on how they represent their brand.
Due to internal restructure we are looking to re-enforce our strong national accounts team through the recruitment of a strong experienced foodservice National Accounts Manager.


THE ROLE:
This opportunity involves both account management and business development at key account and National account level.
You will be responsible for managing a portfolio of established accounts within the Food to Go and Contract Catering sector and retain and grow these accounts through continued introduction of our innovative product range and implementing excellent service levels.
This will involve managing relationships at buyer level and working with our development and design team internally.
You will also be responsible for business development at Key and National Accounts level to grow your client portfolio.
This is an excellent opportunity for a relationship building led account manager with a flair for business development and a consultative sales approach.


THE APPLICANT.
The successful candidate will be a career driven foodservice professional with a strong knowledge of the foodservice sector.
• Candidates must have strong business development skills alongside relationship building skills at all foodservice levels.
• Candidates must be able to deal at all levels from unit head chefs and contract catering managers through to buyer level.
• Candidates with experience at key account and multi site level business are preferred.
• A background in catering disposables or light catering equipment sales will prove beneficial although candidates will be considered from all areas of foodservice sales.
• Candidates will be expected to demonstrate a proven track record of achieving sales targets.

This provides an excellent opportunity to work in a close team environment at National Accounts level with a leading company in their area of foodservice.
