I've recently partnered with a flourishing family-run business experiencing a period of growth. This company specialises in online retail within a niche market and is committed to offering continuous learning opportunities for their team members, providing a real chance for growth and increased responsibility.
As a School Relationship Executive, you will initially manage smaller accounts with the goal of advancing to larger client portfolios and eventually moving into a senior role. You will embody the company's image and ethos, handling issues with professionalism and promptness. Your efforts will ensure that clients consistently receive exceptional value, service, and quality from their brand.
A driving license is desirable but not essential. However, candidates should ideally have plans to learn to drive within the next 6-12 months.
