Job Description
Senior Account Manager – Award-Winning, Category defining brand
London
BACKGROUND
This is a brilliant business to be part of. Shaping the wider category, they are growing at an unprecedented rate, both in the UK and internationally.
Working closely with the Commercial Director and Business unit head, you will take ownership of some of the Top 4 Grocery Accounts. This role is focused on growth, and your natural curiosity and tenacity to make things happen will stand out.
You will relish setting the robust and innovative strategy and be unrelenting in your quest to deliver against it.
There will be plenty of support along the way, from Brand to Insight and Category Data to compelling Shopper Campaigns – the team is in this together.
OPPORTUNITY
The last few years have seen phenomenal growth for this on-trend, healthy food business. With turnover increasing more than four-fold, the trajectory shows no sign of slowing down.
Increased distribution, award-winning new products combined with changing consumer behaviour have been the major pillars for success, not to mention the brilliant commercial team behind it.
In line with the exciting plans, we are looking to speak to talented, well-trained, and ambitious people who want to make things happen.
ABOUT YOU
Preferably, you will understand the landscape and be passionate about seeing your ideas come to fruition. You will have the perfect balance between being a team player and a pioneer.
You will be a brilliant relationship builder and networker but never lose sight of the end goals. Therefore, blending a structured and process-driven approach with a natural entrepreneurial flair is key.
Experience of working in a high-growth environment is a distinct advantage. However, if you are currently working for one of the large players in the UK FMCG market and think there could be more to life, we want to hear from you. Time to make all that training count!
It is imperative that you have experience of working with accounts within the Grocery Retail Estate – e.g., Tesco, Morrisons, Asda, Sainsburys, Waitrose, M&S, etc. Without this experience, it will be difficult to come in and make an impact!
