This is a varied, outward-facing position in which you will proactively identify and develop new business opportunities across existing, lapsed and prospective customers. You will take ownership of a portfolio of UK and European accounts, building strong working relationships at all levels within the OEM through regular face-to-face engagement. Internally, you will work closely with colleagues across Purchasing, Engineering, Quality, Logistics and Materials Control to ensure consistent customer satisfaction and effective account management.
We are looking for a graduate-calibre candidate, ideally in Engineering or Business, with at least three years of experience in key account management or new business development within automotive, aerospace or a related sector. Experience of engineered components is highly desirable, particularly within areas such as engine, powertrain, transmission, drivetrain, suspension, steering, cooling, exhaust, fuel or braking systems.
The role involves extensive UK and European travel. As the manufacturing facility is based in the West Midlands, candidates within approximately one hour's commute of Birmingham are preferred.
Base salary of £90,000 to £110,000, plus bonus and benefits. If you are currently earning above this range, please do not let salary be a barrier to an initial conversation. Our client is committed to securing the right person.
