National account manager

🚀 National Account Manager – Fast-Growing Personal Care Brand

💼 Location: Remote (with one day per week in London – Liverpool St.)

💰 Salary: £50,000 + Bonus + Company Options


We’re working with a bold, fast-growing personal care brand that’s on a mission to tackle life’s messiest moments—whether it’s periods, sex, or everything in between. With a feminist, fun, and fiercely inclusive approach, this brand is making waves in major UK retailers (like Tesco and Boots) and expanding rapidly in the US. Now, they’re looking for a National Account Manager to help take things to the next level.


If you’re a commercially-savvy, relationship-driven go-getter who loves owning accounts and spotting new opportunities, this could be the one for you.


🔥 What You’ll Be Doing:

🏆 Own It: Manage key grocery and high-street accounts with full P&L and JBP responsibility. You’ll drive revenue, close range gaps, pitch NPD, and deliver on ambitious targets—internally and with your retail partners.

🎸 Build Relationships: Be the face of the brand for your customers—building strong, collaborative relationships across all levels. You’ll represent their needs internally while pushing for bold growth externally.

📊 Numbers Matter: Take charge of forecasting and financial planning. You’ll own the P&L, manage trade spend, and track every penny to hit your revenue and profit goals.

⚡ Chase Growth: Identify and unlock new business opportunities. Whether it’s expanding existing ranges or breaking into new channels (think OOH, convenience, and wholesale), you’ll be driving it forward.

✈️ Category Captain: Use customer and shopper insights to build compelling sales stories. You’ll turn data into strategies that drive measurable results and deliver real impact.


🎯 What We’re Looking For:

* FMCG Sales Experience: 3+ years in account management (grocery/high-street preferred)—bonus points if you’ve worked in a fast-growing start-up or challenger brand.
* Strategic & Commercial: You understand the numbers inside-out and can balance rapid growth with profitability.
* Storyteller & Negotiator: You know how to craft compelling pitches and navigate complex negotiations with ease.
* Proactive & Adaptable: You’re a self-starter who thrives in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same.
* People Person: You’re brilliant at building relationships—internally and externally—and aren’t afraid to pick up the phone and make things happen.


🌟 Why You’ll Love It Here:

* Competitive Package: £50,000 per annum + bonus + company options—because your work should pay off.
* Hands-On Learning: Work closely with senior leaders and be part of a high-growth journey.
* Flexible & Fun Culture: Remote-first with one day a week in London. Plus, private health insurance, 28 days of holiday, monthly wellness days, and more.
* Make a Difference: Be part of a brand that’s serious about sustainability, inclusivity, and giving back (5% of profits go to people and the planet).


If you’re ready to own major accounts, drive new business, and be part of a bold, mission-driven brand—we’d love to hear from you.
