Key Account Sales Manager – Activated Carbon Products & Services

Home-Based, UK (with EU Travel) | £60,000 - £80,000 DOE + Bonus + Car/Allowance + Benefits

Sustainable Filtration | Clean Tech | Environmental Solutions

Are you a commercially driven professional with a technical edge? Have you worked with activated carbon and want to turn that knowledge into impact across clean air, water, and sustainable industries?

We're hiring a Key Account Sales Manager to support our continued European growth. Representing a global leader in activated carbon manufacturing and services, you'll manage and grow key industrial accounts, using your sector knowledge and client-first approach to drive real results across the UK and wider Europe.

What You'll Do

• Manage and grow strategic accounts in water purification, biogas, chemicals, remediation, food & beverage, and more
• Identify and develop new business opportunities across the UK and Europe
• Collaborate with regional EMEA teams and distribution partners to strengthen market presence
• Deliver value-led technical solutions that solve complex customer challenges
• Travel across Europe (25–50%) for customer visits, industry events, and training
• Represent a high-quality portfolio of activated carbon products and services

What You’ll Bring

• 3+ years of sales management experience in activated carbon or a closely related technical field
• Background in chemistry, process engineering, filtration, or equivalent technical expertise
• Strong understanding of key markets: air filtration, water, wastewater, chemicals, or environmental remediation
• Track record of developing key accounts and delivering commercial success
• Experience working with agents/distributors to expand reach and influence
• A self-starter attitude—entrepreneurial, analytical, and results-oriented
• Fluent English; other European languages are a plus

Why This Role?

This is more than a sales job - it's an opportunity to be part of a high-growth sector that directly supports cleaner, healthier environments. You’ll join a fast-paced, forward-thinking team within a global, privately held company with a track record of success and innovation.

Expect variety, autonomy, and a clear runway for growth. Your success here will be recognised and rewarded.
