Job Specifications

Are you a commercially astute Account Manager looking for your next challenge in a dynamic FMCG environment? Do you want to join a business that's part of a global group, renowned for developing talent and driving growth? If so, this could be the opportunity for you!

Signature Career Management are partnered with a market-leading food manufacturer, turning over more than PS200m, and recognised as one of the UK's leading players in their category. With a strong reputation for quality and authenticity, their products are found across wholesale, retail, B2B and foodservice, with a portfolio of household name brands.

This is a business that combines the energy and entrepreneurial feel of a challenger brand with the support and structure of a global FMCG group. They pride themselves on their collaborative culture, internal mobility, and track record of giving ambitious people the tools to succeed.

As Customer Manager, you'll take on a critical role within one of the company's most exciting divisions. The channel is evolving fast - already very well established in foodservice with further growth opportunity. This newly created role will give you the chance to both safeguard existing customers, and break new ground in emerging segments.

Key Responsibilities:

Manage and develop a customer portfolio within a high-growth channel, with scope tailored to your experience
Drive distribution and sales for a portfolio of well-loved, authentic brands
Unlock new business opportunities across wholesale and out-of-home channels
Build strong commercial relationships while delivering against growth targets
Work cross-functionally with sales, marketing and category to shape and deliver channel strategy
Bring structure, creativity and commercial rigour to a fast-paced, competitive environment

About you:

Experienced Account Manager or Senior Account Manager with proven FMCG success (wholesale cash & carry, retail or foodservice experience ideal)
Commercially sharp with strong planning, negotiation and stakeholder management skills
Entrepreneurial, proactive and comfortable identifying new growth opportunities
Energetic, ambitious and collaborative - someone who thrives in a go-getting culture
Knowledge of East Asian wholesale or language skills would be a bonus, but not essential

This is a rare chance to join a supportive, high-performing team and help shape the next stage of growth for a business with ambitious plans and strong backing.
