Key Account Manager On Trade London & S.E

We are looking for a high performing Key Account Manager to sell the World’s Best Lager (it is official). Hofmeister Helles is an authentic, 5% imported premium lager, made from only the finest ingredients, and brewed in the heart of Bavaria.

Having relaunched in 2017 we have enjoyed a fantastic first few years. We have been awarded Best Lager in the World, by the prestigious IWSC, Gold medal at the International Beer Challenge, and Double Gold at the European Beer Challenge.  We have been successful in winning business in some fabulous accounts: pubs, restaurants, bars & hotels including some very high-profile names. Within these accounts, the brand, product and proposition has been proved to work and is gaining traction, so we are now looking to expand our customer base. Distribution into the right accounts for our brand is key to our plans so this role will play an extremely important part of our growth.

This is an immediate requirement for a highly driven KAM who is up for the challenge and will enjoy being part of the next stage of Hofmeister’s exciting journey including all the highs and lows that will inevitably come with being part of the early-stage team of a brands growth. Rest assured we will be there to celebrate or commiserate with you along the way. We are looking for someone who can demonstrate successful key account experience and a track record of consistently exceeding stretch sales and distribution targets in the on-trade. Someone who already has a network of contacts in London and the South. Someone who can demonstrate experience of working on new product launches or within an early-stage business. An ability to develop and manage a high performing sales team would be a bonus.  

We bought the old English Hofmeister brand and now make it in the heart of Bavaria, so we like to think of ourselves as “German Engineering with British personality”. Some of the values that we hold dear for ourselves and our business and that we are looking for in you are:

• Concern for Excellence
• Dedication
• Self-motivation
• Warmth
• Wit
• Courage
• Empathy
