Director - Key Account Management | Newcastle upon Tyne (Hybrid) | OTE £150,000 Uncapped | Commission Paid Monthly | Senior LTIP Package
If your skills, experience, and qualifications match those in this job overview, do not delay your application.
This is one of the most senior commercial appointments they will make this year.
Are you the kind of person who looks at a 9,000-account portfolio and sees a goldmine?
Not a manager. Not a farmer. A hunter. Someone who walks into a room full of existing subscription customers and immediately starts asking: where is the revenue we are not going after yet? What relationships do we not have? What are we leaving on the table?
That is the person we need.
We are working exclusively with a global leader in construction data and software solutions. PE-backed, operating across 25 countries, approximately 2,000 people worldwide. Their products are the category standard - used by over 98% of the UK's top architecture and design firms and deeply embedded across the construction supply chain. If you work in UK construction, you almost certainly use something they make.
The Director of Key Account Management owns existing-customer revenue growth across the UK and Ireland. You will lead a team of 11, manage c.€3.8m of subscription and software revenue across approximately 9,000 accounts, and drive a minimum 10% year-on-year growth target. Commission is paid monthly. The basic salary is competitive and will be discussed at first conversation stage.
This is a transformation role. The account base is large, the cross-sell opportunity across two market-leading subscription product lines is enormous, and the business has the appetite and the PE backing to move fast. They need someone who matches that energy. xgikmsk
