Our client is a dynamic, rapidly growing, and highly ambitious FMCG Food business based in the heart of Central London. If you want to work in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment where your hard work directly impacts growth, this is the place to be.
Are you currently working in Field Sales, Business Development (BDM), or Key Account Management, but feeling limited by your current progression? Do you have strong commercial acumen and a burning desire to manage major retail P&Ls, but need the foundational training to get there?
This National Account Assistant role is your golden ticket into the world of National Account Management. You will be mastering the critical "engine room" of commercial sales—handling customer forms, promotional documentation, forecasting data, and internal cross-functional coordination.
Key Responsibilities
- Own the end-to-end administration for major national grocery and retail accounts, including new line forms, price maintenance, and promotional setup docs.
- Maintain accuracy across promotional calendars, ensuring internal teams and supply chain are aligned with retailer activations.
- Support the National Account Managers with sales data analysis, tracking performance against targets, and preparing insights for retailer meetings.
- Act as a key bridge between Sales, Marketing, Finance, and Supply Chain to ensure seamless execution of joint business plans.
- Shadow senior team members on major joint business plans and range reviews, gradually taking on direct ownership of smaller accounts or sub-categories.
What We Are Looking For
- Experience within FMCG or consumer goods is essential with 1-3 years in sales desirable. You might currently be a Field Sales Representative, BDM, Key Account Executive, or Sales Analyst looking for a step up.
- You understand the basics of margins, revenue, and retail metrics, and you want to learn how to manage a full P&L.
- You take pride in flawless accuracy. You understand that a single error on a promotional form can impact thousands of pounds in revenue.
- A self-starter attitude with the grit to thrive in a fast-moving, high-growth environment.
What’s in It for You?
- This business is committed to promoting from within. Success in this role will directly pave your way toward becoming a National Account Manager.
- Learn directly from seasoned commercial leaders who are working with top-tier national retailers.
