Job Description

Business Account Executive

Food / FMCG | Grocery Retail | Real Ownership Opportunity

£ Competitive + Car Allowance + Uncapped Bonus

Home-based + weekly team day (Coventry) + customer travel

Growing food business supplying major UK retailers

This isn’t your typical Account Executive role…

If you’re looking for a role where you’re just processing promotions, updating spreadsheets and waiting to be told what to do, this isn’t it.

This is a chance to:

Get properly involved in accounts

Challenge the way things are done

Bring ideas and see them implemented

And genuinely shape part of the commercial function

The Role

You’ll be working closely with the Commercial team, supporting key grocery accounts including Tesco and Waitrose, alongside a portfolio of wholesale customers.

But more importantly…

You’ll be expected to:

Get under the skin of the accounts quickly

Identify opportunities for growth and improvement

Bring solutions, not problems

Help streamline and develop areas that are currently untapped

There is real scope here, particularly within the wholesale side, for someone to come in, take ownership and make a visible impact.

What They’re Really Looking For

This is less about ticking boxes… and more about mindset.

They want someone who:

Has a “get on with it” attitude

Is naturally curious and commercially minded

Brings ideas, not just execution

Isn’t afraid to say: “why don’t we try this?”

Has the drive and tenacity to improve things

This is a solutions-led, proactive environment

Your Background (Essential)

To be considered, you must have experience within the food or FMCG sector, this is a non-negotiable due to the nature of the products, pace, and customer expectations.

Alongside this, you’ll ideally have:

Experience supporting or managing retail / national accounts

Confidence working with:

Sales data

Commercial reporting

Presentations

Nice to have:

Exposure to major retailers (Tesco, Waitrose etc.)

Experience across own label and/or branded products

You might currently be:

An Account Executive ready for more ownership

Or someone in a larger business looking to step into a more agile, visible role

The Culture

This is a tight-knit, collaborative team where:

People support each other

Ideas are welcomed

And everyone is expected to contribute

They don’t want someone to sit back and wait, they want someone who leans in and makes things better

Why This Role?

Genuine opportunity to shape accounts and processes

Work closely with experienced commercial leaders

Be part of a business where you can see the impact of what you do

Clear potential to grow into broader account ownership over time

Sound like you?

If you:

Have experience within food/FMCG

Think commercially

And want to be part of something where your ideas actually matter

We’d love to hear from you
