Key Account Manager – Foodservice

Home Counties

Up to 45k + 25% Bonus + Car Allowance (or car)

Are you ready to take the lead in a fast-growing, flavour-driven business that’s transforming the UK foodservice market?

We’re partnered with a true innovator in world foods; a business that’s capturing the attention of chefs, contract caterers, and restaurant groups nationwide.

Their products bring bold, authentic flavour to professional kitchens across the UK, and their expansion in foodservice is showing no signs of slowing down.

Now, they’re looking for a Key Account Manager to take ownership of a thriving territory across the Home Counties, developing relationships, unlocking new opportunities, and shaping growth with major end-user customers across restaurants, contract catering, and education.

The Opportunity

This isn’t a maintenance role... it’s about momentum.

You’ll be responsible for driving growth, building partnerships, and bringing creative commercial thinking to your customers. Reporting into an experienced Head of Foodservice, you’ll have the freedom to make decisions, influence strategy, and see your impact in real time.

You’ll:

Develop and grow relationships across contract caterers, restaurant groups, and education sectors
Manage key accounts and identify new business opportunities across your region
Collaborate closely with internal teams, from chefs to customer service, to deliver fresh ideas and first-class support
Take ownership of commercial negotiations, promotions, and pricing strategy
Act as the face of a brand known for its quality, innovation, and energy

About You

You’re a driven, commercial-minded sales professional who thrives in foodservice. You know the end-user landscape, and you know how to make things happen.

You’ll bring:

A strong network within UK foodservice, ideally across restaurants, contract catering, or education
Proven experience in winning and growing new business
Excellent commercial acumen - confident managing margins, pricing, and P&Ls
A proactive, hands-on approach and passion for great food

Why Join?

This business is at a pivotal stage of growth, with big wins already achieved and major expansion plans in motion. You’ll be joining a team that values initiative, creativity, and the drive to make an impact.

It’s an opportunity to own your region, shape your strategy, and be part of something that’s truly on the rise.
