National Key Account Manager (Service Sales)

£50,000 + 20% Bonus | £560/month Car Allowance | Home-Based with National Travel

I'm recruiting on behalf of a market-leading service provider specialising in automated entrance solutions for high-traffic, safety-critical environments. With a well-established UK footprint and a strong European presence, the business supports major organisations in retail, facilities management, transport, and regulated sectors, providing fully tailored service and maintenance solutions.

They are now looking to appoint a National Key Account Manager to join their successful UK Service Sales team. This is a high-profile, standalone role, reporting directly to the Service Sales Director, and focused on strategic account growth, customer retention, and long-term commercial success.

The role is home-based and open to candidates located anywhere in the UK, with regular national travel to client sites and occasional office visits (HQ is in the South East).

What You Need to Know:

This role is all about relationship development and commercial leadership. You’ll take ownership of several major national accounts- primarily in the retail and FM sectors - and be responsible for growing revenues, negotiating renewals, identifying service enhancements, and maintaining excellent client relationships.

Background isn’t everything - what matters most is that you have experience selling service and maintenance contracts. Whether you’ve done that in technical services, FM, security, fire safety, HVAC, lifts, plant, or any other service-led sector - if you understand the sales lifecycle and can manage large national accounts, we’d love to hear from you.

Key Responsibilities:

• Manage and grow strategic relationships with large national clients
• Develop and deliver commercial account plans that drive retention and revenue
• Secure contract renewals, upsells, and service upgrades
• Handle tenders and pricing negotiations with confidence
• Act as the escalation point for senior service and delivery concerns
• Track SLA and KPI performance across your accounts

What We're Looking For:

• Proven experience in service and maintenance sales – any relevant industry considered
• Strong track record in Key Account Management, particularly with national or multi-site clients
• Confident working with stakeholders in retail, FM, or other regulated sectors
• A relationship-first approach, with commercial sharpness and problem-solving ability
• Able to work independently, manage your own diary, and travel nationally as required

The Package:

• Bonus: Up to 20% (based on new business targets)
• Contract: Full-time, permanent (40 hours/week)
• Location: Home-based (UK-wide) with national travel
• Reporting to: Service Sales Director
• Team: Joining a collaborative team of 11 Key Account Executives, you’ll focus on top-tier accounts

If you're an experienced Key Account Manager with a background in selling service and maintenance solutions, and you're looking for a senior, high-impact role with the freedom to shape key client relationships - this could be a perfect next step.
