Exciting Senior NAM Foodservice operator with a leading manufacturer

THE COMPANY:

We are an internationally renowned bakery manufacturer specialising in providing mid-high end products to the Foodservice sector. Established for many years, we have developed a reputation for quality, combined with excellent support and service, leading to our products being featured on menus of many hospitality establishments including hotels, restaurants, leisure, and casual dining.

Our product range is diverse, enabling us to offer comprehensive bakery solutions to many clients. Our UK division has thrived recently due to strong product innovation and a commercial team with extensive Foodservice experience.

Due to continued growth, we are seeking a Senior National Account Manager to focus on managing and developing relationships with major chain end users.

THE ROLE:

This position is a key part of our commercial team working with Foodservice clients. The focus is on developing relationships with major hospitality chains and tendering for new business. You will inherit a portfolio of accounts, mainly within hotels, restaurants, and pub groups, managing relationships at a national level, including negotiating terms, pricing, and service levels at buyer level. The role involves tendering for listings and possibly NPD projects. You will also target acquiring new relationships within these sectors.

This is a home-based role requiring high autonomy, ideal for a candidate with strong Foodservice sales experience at the National Account level, who thrives independently.

THE APPLICANT:

• Proven track record in Foodservice National Accounts working with major hospitality and foodservice end-user chains
• Experience in securing new business at buyer level within Foodservice end users
• Background in Foodservice Manufacturing is preferred, but candidates with strong end-user experience at the National Account level within Foodservice wholesale will also be considered
• Experience in bakery within Foodservice is a plus but not essential
• Self-starter with the ability to work independently in a home-based environment

All applicants should send their CVs to paul.haworth@midas-selection.com
