Job description

Really pleased to be working on this excellent Prestige Key Account Opportunity

KEY ACCOUNT MANAGER - HORECA - PRESTIGE DRINKS - LONDON

The Company

An established prestige drinks brand with a strong reputation for quality, design and delivering an exceptional customer experience. Working with the UK's prestige hospitality businesses, the brand has built a presence in a market where quality, service and attention to detail really matter.

With ambitious growth plans, they're looking for a commercially minded individual to help take the business to the next level.

The Role

A great opportunity for someone who enjoys winning new business just as much as developing existing relationships.

You'll have responsibility for identifying, securing and growing high value accounts across the prestige hospitality sector, targeting leading hotel groups, Michelin restaurants and other prestige operators.

The brief is clear: open doors, build relationships with key decision makers and turn opportunities into profitable, long term partnerships.

You'll also manage and develop a portfolio of strategic accounts, finding ways to increase distribution, strengthen relationships and grow revenue.

This is a role for someone who wants to make a genuine commercial impact, rather than simply manage an existing customer base.

The Person

You'll have a proven track record in new business development and key account management within premium/prestige drinks, hospitality, foodservice or FMCG.

You'll be confident pitching to senior stakeholders, commercially astute and persistent enough to turn initial conversations into long term business.

A natural relationship builder with a hunter mentality, you'll understand the importance of balancing short term sales delivery with building valuable accounts for the future.

Experience working with premium/prestige brands and high end hospitality customers would be a real advantage.

London based or within easy commuting distance.

The Package

Up to £55K, bonus and benefits, depending on experience.
