Job Description

Key Account Manager - Packaging 

Bradford | Full-time (office-based + client travel)
 Salary and OTE DOE - Circa £38,000 - £50,000

I'm currently partnering with a market-leading UK business in the packaging sector to recruit a Customer Business Manager / Key Account Manager. This is a fantastic opportunity for someone looking to step up or further develop a career in account management and customer strategy within a high-performing, people-focused organisation.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This isn't a transactional sales role. My client is looking for someone who can build long-term partnerships, add real value to customers, and become a trusted advisor.

The business is the largest UK distributor of polypropylene, laminates, and specialist films, supplying major names across the food manufacturing sector.

The Role

You'll join an established Customer Business Manager team, taking ownership of a portfolio of accounts. Your focus will be on relationship management, service delivery, and account growth rather than quick wins.

You will act as the voice of the customer internally, ensuring everything from stock planning to product solutions runs smoothly.

As part of the role, you can expect to be out visiting clients around 4-5 times per month, giving you valuable face-to-face time to strengthen relationships and identify new opportunities.
