Account Manager

An ambitious and growing business which has a strong reputation in its field is looking for an Account Manager to join its commercial function.

The business is a local success story, growing from humble beginnings, driven by a founder and a wider management team which has big plans. They operate in a sector which has a compelling story to tell, one which offers a valuable service that is topical and of great importance in today’s world – one that a sales professional could be proud to represent and get behind.

The role will help the business to grow by identifying, approaching, and winning new accounts for the business. It is a service that is well received by potential customers, so the process of opening doors and pitching for business can come easily (to those who show determination, a strong work ethic, creativity, and good people skills).

After winning the business, the role will subsequently account manage, and the nature of the service means that the firm will have a long-standing relationship with its customer base as the service becomes integral, valued and non-disposable by the customer base. It is a dream scenario for an account manager who can rely on regular productivity from accounts once they are won (if strong account management, care and focus is given).

Whilst the firm is small, it has ambitious plans and a stable commercial platform. This role represents a fantastic and unique opportunity for someone to join a supportive business and build a stable career in sales in an employer that will reward people very well.

Attractive commission and earning potential is on offer and the commercial function is hard working but also good fun, with lots of energy, laughs and enthusiasm.

To apply to this role, you should be an experience account manager who can demonstrate a successful track record of surpassing targets in roles that have required the identification, winning, management and growth accounts. You should have sales experience that has a demonstrable and measurable success story behind it and be a person who enjoys self-development and shows drive. You will be a strong communicator, someone who is a great listener, problem solver and relationship builder. You should have B2B sales experience.

Salary: Up to £45,000 basic, £120,000 OTE.
