Sales Account Manager – Internal Business Development Team
Location: Kingston, Milton Keynes. Office-based with some flexibility
Reports to: Commercial Director / Business Development Director
Are you a people-person with a knack for building strong relationships and driving sales? Do you love the idea of working with a forward-thinking company that values integrity, teamwork, and innovation? If so, we’d love to hear from you!
We're looking for a Sales Account Manager to join an Internal Business Development Team – someone who can help the company grow their revenue and margins while delivering top-notch service to their valued customers.
What’s the role about?
As a Sales Account Manager at this food service and hospitality company, you’ll be at the heart of their sales activity – managing and growing key accounts, developing new opportunities, and helping them stay ahead of the curve in the foodservice equipment industry. You’ll work closely with distributors, contractors, and wholesalers, and you'll be a key player in growing both their current channels and exploring new ones.
This is an internal, desk-based role (phone, video, email), but it’s anything but boring. You'll be building strong relationships and having real impact—right from your desk.
What you’ll be doing:
* Building and maintaining strong B2B relationships with key accounts
* Developing new sales channels and identifying growth opportunities
* Using phone, video, and email to stay connected and keep communication efficient and professional
* Meeting and beating sales targets (aim for at least 10% YoY growth!)
* Supporting key account development and onboarding new clients
* Providing insights to the marketing and product teams on market trends and competitor activity
* Keeping the CRM system up to date with accurate customer and project information
* Preparing sales reports and forecasts
* Contributing to marketing campaigns and strategic projects
* Ensuring all your work aligns with the company’s quality standards and health & safety policies
* Playing your part in supporting international sales development
* Living and breathing the company “Success Code”
What we’re looking for:
We’re after someone who’s commercially savvy, personable, and highly motivated. You should be able to manage your time well, solve problems on the fly, and bring positive energy to every client interaction.
You’ll ideally have:
* A proven background in sales/account management, preferably in B2B environments
* Excellent communication and relationship-building skills (both written and verbal)
* Experience working with national or key accounts
* Confidence using digital tools and CRMs to manage customer data and pipelines
* Strong organisational skills and attention to detail
* A passion for delivering a great customer experience
* Knowledge of the foodservice or hospitality industry (or transferable sales skills)
* A can-do attitude, the ability to work independently and collaboratively, and a genuine desire to succeed
Bonus points for:
* Experience working with distributors, contractors or wholesalers
* Great presentation skills
* A full UK driving license (not essential for this role)
