Summary

We're recruiting a National Account Executive on behalf of our client, a market-leading commercial catering solutions provider, for a permanent, field-based sales role covering accounts across the UK. You'll manage and grow a portfolio of key national accounts, run Quarterly Business Reviews, and deliver measurable growth across multi-site operations — backed by a strong package including a company car, performance bonus, and genuine career development.

This is a strong fit for a driven B2B sales or account management professional — ideally with food, foodservice, or commercial catering experience — who wants autonomy, variety, and a real career path managing complex client accounts.

What You'll Be Doing

Account Management & Client Relationships

Manage a defined portfolio of core clients, conducting regular site visits and GAP analysis

Carry out customer-facing meetings with clear, documented objectives

Conduct Quarterly Business Reviews (QBRs) with key accounts, producing joint business plans focused on growth

Build and maintain relationships with key stakeholders across multi-site, complex client structures

Sales Planning & Delivery

Develop and implement a structured sales plan to retain existing customers and win new business

Achieve sales and margin targets, ensuring profitable conversion of contracts and quoted works

Monitor customer and internal KPIs, addressing performance proactively

Representation & Collaboration

Represent the business at national trade shows, conferences, and networking events

Work closely with the National Account Manager and wider internal teams (operations, marketing, finance)

What We're Looking For

Essential:

Proven customer-facing or external sales experience

Strong ability to build and maintain relationships with key stakeholders

Excellent verbal and written communication skills

Good numerical skills and commercial acumen

IT literate — Excel, Word, and ERP systems

Full UK driving licence with no more than 3 points

Desirable:

Experience in the food, foodservice, or commercial catering sector

Familiarity with CRM systems and PowerPoint

Experience working with multi-site clients or complex stakeholder structures

GCSE Maths and English at grade C or above (or equivalent), or degree-level education

Why This Role

Alongside a competitive basic salary, this role comes with a performance bonus, a company car, and one of the stronger benefits packages we see at this level — 25+ days holiday (with the option to buy more), a matched 5% pension, retail discounts, and free parking. It's a genuine opportunity to step into national account management with autonomy, variety, and a clear path to grow into a more senior account role.

This role suits:

Field sales professionals ready to step up to national account level

Foodservice / commercial catering sales specialists

B2B Account Managers looking for a home-based role with a company car

Candidates who enjoy autonomy, travel, and managing complex, multi-site relationships
