We're partnering with a successful FMCG manufacturer in the Northwest to find a National Account Executive who would thrive in a dynamic, fast‑paced environment.
About the role: Looking for a role that gives you a great understanding of the commercial world in FMCG? Working on some of the major, well‑established accounts, you would support the commercial team in driving sales, helping manage customer partnerships, deliver promotions and new product launches, and ensure smooth day‑to‑day operations with major retailers.
Reporting into the Commercial Director opens up a real opportunity here for personal development, not many roles at this level would have a mentor with the experience in the industry to learn from.
Your day‑to‑day:
Support account growth across major customers by assisting with sales targets, account plans, and day‑to‑day operations
Use data insights to track performance and identify opportunities
Manage account administration
Work closely with cross‑functional teams to ensure strong execution
Support forecasting, budgeting, and customer requirements
Deliver promotions and product launches, from concept to launch
What are we looking for in your background?
You would ideally be a driven individual with some commercial experience who embraces an atmosphere where no two days are the same. Working closely with customers, understanding their challenges, striving for collaborative working between the businesses, and taking pride in outstanding relationship management and customer service.
Some commercial experience, ideally in a food or FMCG environment
Food retailer or foodservice experience essential
Strong numerical skills, working with Excel or other sales‑related software
Confident in your communication style - open and approachable
Bright and motivated, able to prioritise and react to the demands of the role
Keen to develop your commercial skills
This role suits someone who takes initiative, is curious about the commercial landscape, and values a collaborative, team‑first environment. Being agile and able to think on your feet in a dynamic environment is essential. All commercial roles need drive and a clear communication style, and enjoying environments that move at speed is critical for this role to really thrive and grow with this great commercial team.
This is a great team, and the opportunity to develop your commercial career here should not be overlooked. The experience and knowledge around the team are outstanding. For more details, reach out to Sarah at Novus. We're hiring for a range of commercial positions, so even if this one isn't the perfect fit, there may be other opportunities aligned to your background
