National Account Executive/Key Account Manager

National Account Executive/Key Account Manager | North London- Hybrid | 12-month FTC from Jan 2027 | 40k-43k + great bonus

This role would be great for someone from the Buying/Merch side within a retailer looking to swap to Account Management or for someone currently working in a supplier looking more account responsibility!

This role sits within the UK Account Management team of a global, innovative consumer products business, working across a portfolio of well known household brands.

You might already be working as a National Account Executive, Account Coordinator or Account Manager, looking for more responsibility and the opportunity to manage and develop your own customers.

Equally, you could be working in Buying or Merchandising within a retailer, with strong commercial experience, and be looking for a different challenge and the opportunity to move into account management on the supplier side.

What matters is that you understand the world of physical products, brands and retailers, whether that's, fashion, beauty, homewares, gifting or another consumer goods category.

If you've been looking at roles and thinking I'd be great at that if someone would just give me the opportunity, this could be it.

There's loads to learn, proper account responsibility and the opportunity to work with major UK retailers and some brilliant brands.

The role will involve:

· Managing and developing relationships with UK retail customers

· Building account plans and identifying opportunities for growth

· Forecasting, ranging and promotional planning

· Analysing sales performance and using data to make commercial decisions

· Presenting to customers and supporting commercial negotiations

· Working closely with Marketing, Planning, Operations and Finance

For me, the important bit is finding someone who is driven, hardworking, commercially switched on and has a great attitude. Someone who wants to get stuck in, take ownership and really develop their career.

You'll be joining a fast-paced, high-performing and genuinely collaborative team, based in a fantastic London office with hybrid and flexible working.

Yes, it's a 12-month contract. But it's also 12 months of experience and responsibility that could be difficult to get without already having done the job. That's what makes this opportunity particularly interesting.

If this sounds like the kind of next move you've been looking for, I'd love to hear from you.
