Job description

Overview

Commercially minded with a genuine motorsport interest? If this sounds like you, this could be the new job you never knew you wanted. This position will report directly into senior management who are a very hardworking and dedicated group, so someone who shares that approach will thrive in this company. Not looking for a sales person, this is ideally suited for someone at the start of their career and looking for a position where they can grow and develop.

Responsibilities

• This is a true account management role where you'll be managing the agent and distributor network of the client.
• Play a key part in developing accounts to increase the company's global presence and keep customers happy. This role is focused on maintaining existing customers; new business will be appreciated but isn’t required.
• You will be representing the client at exhibitions and some travel around UK/Europe visiting customers will be required.

The Company

They have gone from strength to strength in recent years and with some recent key hires in the senior management team they are heading for an even stronger future. Their product is in great demand globally and they dominate the market share in the Motorsport industry specifically. They also have a presence in the Aerospace, MOD and Marine industries, but are careful not to take on too much as they are already at capacity with current head count. They have a workshop that you would be proud to show customers, located just on the outskirts of Milton Keynes centre.

What’s required

• A desire to work hard and personally develop your skills.
• Motorsport/Automotive background would be desirable and an understanding of how these industries work. If it is your interest, you’ll be speaking with F1 teams to supercar manufacturers.
• A high attention to detail and strong skills within customer service; you will be the face of the company from an aftermarket perspective.

Compensation

This is a salary-only role with no commission.
