Account Manager – Foodservice Wholesale into HORECA
Plus, Company Car, Bonus Paid monthly, Pension, plus other Benefits.
A leading independent foodservice wholesaler with a strong regional presence is seeking an experienced and driven Account Manager to join their dynamic Midlands team. Operating from a newly expanded distribution depot, the business supplies an extensive range of chilled, frozen, ambient, and non-food products to a diverse customer base including pubs, restaurants, hotels, schools, and coffee shops. With other specialist services and a commitment to sustainability through on-site renewable energy and eco-friendly packaging solutions, the company is well-positioned for growth. This is a fantastic opportunity for a commercially minded professional to manage key accounts, develop new business opportunities, and contribute to the continued success of a values-led, customer-focused organisation.
As an Account Manager covering Birmingham, Coventry, and the Black Country, you will be responsible for managing and developing a portfolio of existing customers while actively identifying new business opportunities across the region. You’ll work closely with chefs, business owners, and procurement teams to understand their needs, deliver tailored solutions, and ensure outstanding customer service. This is a field-based role that requires a proactive and results-driven approach, strong commercial awareness, and the ability to build lasting relationships in a fast-paced and competitive market.
The ideal candidate would be someone currently working in the field for a foodservice wholesaler, with a strong understanding of the sector and a proven ability to manage and grow customer accounts. However, we would also consider individuals working for a wholesaler in an internal account management or internal sales role who are looking to progress into a field-based position. Additionally, this could be a great opportunity for a chef who is looking to move into a sales role, particularly if they bring strong communication skills, commercial awareness, and a passion for food.
