Wholesale National Account Manager – Health Snacks

Wholesale National Account Manager –Health Snacks

Competitive package

Central London

My client is one of the fastest growing independently owned businesses in Europe in the Health Snack arena. Following the launch of their new product range, they are now looking for a talented and ambitious National Account Manager to boost the brand’s presence within the wholesale channel.  

My client has seen exceptional success over the last 5 years, specifically targeting the Healthy Snack category. As this market and target audience is constantly increasing, they have seen an opportunity to increase their product offer and introduce an entirely new brand and product which they believe will complement their current range.

You will be responsible for driving awareness of this new product range across an existing customer base, which will include wholesalers such as Brakes, Selector and The Compass Group. You will also be tasked with raising awareness and increasing sales within the Wholesale channel, selling directly to large groups and chains within this category.

Other duties and responsibilities will include:

• Full P&L responsibility for the Wholesale channel for this new product range
• Develop and implement a robust strategy for profitable sales growth
• Develop strategic partnerships with key customers
• Identify new business opportunities within the market  
• To work with customers to develop a broader range portfolio
• To monitor service levels to customers and ensure a smooth supply
• Work cross functionally with Marketing, NPD, Operations, Production, Procurement and Finance

The business is ideally looking for somebody from a Food/Drinks background, who is well established within wholesale and foodservice. Those with snacking experience would be at an advantage, but individuals from other product categories are still encouraged to apply.

The successful candidate will be joining a business that truly values their employees. They have an exceptional package offering which includes unlimited holiday after a certain length of service, paid breakfast and lunches, as well as share options within a growing business! This is in addition to a very competitive basic salary and substantial and achievable bonus potential.
