About this role

Key Account Manager, upto £68,000 Basic Salary | Car Allowance | Field-Based / National | 33 Days Holiday from Day One | Company Pension | Home Base and circa 3 Days per Week Client-Facing. We are seeking an exceptional Key Account Manager to lead, protect, and strategically develop a flagship single enterprise account valued at £11M. Built on a trusted partnership spanning more than two decades, this relationship is deeply embedded into the client's operational infrastructure. The account is vast, multifaceted, and demanding, requiring an experienced commercial leader who can combine long-term strategic vision with sharp commercial tact. Your clear remit is to preserve this partnership while uncovering sustainable avenues for continued growth.

To Apply for the Role of Key Account Manager

  • To be considered, you must bring a proven track record of managing and expanding a high-value single enterprise relationship, likely gained under job titles such as Key Account Manager, National Account Manager, or Corporate Account Director.
  • Background experience in the packaging or waste management sectors is advantageous, though proven expertise in navigating large, complex corporate structures is essential.
  • You must be politically adept, highly sophisticated in your approach, and equipped with first-class presentation and interpersonal skills.
  • While the position provides the autonomy of being home-based, you will be expected to spend approximately three days per week in the field meeting key client stakeholders and supporting your team nationwide.

The Role of Key Account Manager

This appointment is far from a detached, desk-bound oversight role. It demands proactive, hands-on leadership across the UK, engaging directly with diverse stakeholders across multiple operational departments while commanding absolute credibility and gravitas in the client's boardroom.

In addition to client-side stewardship, you will lead, mentor, and deploy a dedicated team of three Account Managers. Success will depend on your ability to coach your team to peak performance, delegating tasks effectively around individual capabilities to ensure seamless service delivery.
