Are you a commercially sharp National Account Manager who knows how to build retailer relationships, drive growth, and deliver first-class service in the fast-moving world of fresh produce?
We’re partnering with a globally respected, category-leading fresh food business that puts quality, innovation, and customer partnerships at the heart of everything they do. They’re looking for a talented NAM to join their UK commercial team and take ownership of a major national retail account.
What You’ll Be Doing
1. Own the day-to-day relationship with a key UK retailer and become their go-to commercial partner
2. Deliver budgeted sales, negotiate weekly pricing, and maximise value across branded and private label lines
3. Forecast demand, match supply, and ensure service levels stay consistently high
4. Communicate price, volume and availability with clarity and confidence
5. Collaborate cross-functionally with supply chain, growers, category, packaging and senior leadership
6. Analyse performance, spot opportunities, and bring category-led insights to the customer
7. Support tenders, build growth plans, and be part of the wider commercial strategy
8. Get into stores, understand the competitive landscape, and bring intelligence back into the business
What We’re Looking For
9. An experienced National Account Manager (or strong Junior NAM ready to step up)
10. Retailer-facing experience essential – ideally within fresh food or FMCG
11. Sharp commercial instincts, confident negotiator, strong communicator
12. Highly organised, proactive, solutions-driven and comfortable working at pace
13. Excel/PowerPoint capable, data-literate, and reliable with forecasting
14. Passionate about fresh produce, food culture, and customer partnerships
15. Willingness to travel within the UK as needed
Why This Role?
You’ll be joining a world-class commercial team, working with one of the most recognised fresh brands in the category, and playing a key role in shaping the future growth of the UK retail business. This is a role with genuine visibility, accountability and opportunity.
If you’re commercially switched-on, customer-centric and ready to make a big impact—this could be your next move.
