I am proud to be working with Jing Tea and we search for a new London Key Account manager.
JING has spent over 20 years redefining what tea can be, becoming the choice of Michelin-starred chefs, five-star hotels and some of the world's most respected hospitality destinations.
Now comes the opportunity to build on that reputation.
If you know how premium hospitality works, understand how to win influential accounts and enjoy opening doors that elevate a brand, this could be the role that defines your next chapter.
Ways of working: Hybrid - field based with flexible London office working (up to 3 days per week)
What's in it for you?
- Own some of the UK's and Europe's most prestigious hospitality accounts
- Join an internationally recognised premium brand with genuine heritage and purpose
- The freedom to develop long-term commercial strategies rather than simply chase short-term targets
- Work directly with senior leadership where your ideas genuinely influence growth
- A business that invests in its people through training, development and flexible working
- Hybrid working, generous holiday allowance, annual bonus, private healthcare and outstanding employee benefits
About the business...
Most people think they know tea.
Then they discover JING.
For over two decades they've partnered with master tea producers across the world's finest tea‑growing regions, sourcing exceptional single‑origin teas that have transformed the way luxury hospitality serves one of its most important drinks.
Today JING is trusted by world‑class hotels, award‑winning restaurants and premium hospitality operators across the globe.
Their ambition isn't simply to sell more tea, It's to create unforgettable guest experiences while building a more sustainable future for tea producers around the world.
The role...
Nurture existing relationships and create an impact in identifying where JING belongs next.
Develop strategic growth plans for prestigious hospitality groups, strengthen relationships with influential decision makers and secure new listings that place the brand exactly where it deserves to be.
From iconic hotels and luxury restaurants to premium hospitality groups across the UK and Europe, you'll become the person responsible for growing one of the world's most respected premium beverage brands.
Day to day looks like this...
- Managing and growing a portfolio of premium hospitality accounts
- Developing long‑term commercial plans that deliver sustainable revenue growth
- Identifying and converting new business opportunities across high‑end HORECA customers
- Building relationships with senior hospitality stakeholders and key decision makers
- Delivering engaging product training that turns customers into passionate brand advocates
- Ensuring exceptional visibility and presentation across every customer touchpoint
- Managing opportunities through CRM while maintaining a healthy sales pipeline
- Representing JING at industry events, exhibitions and customer meetings
- Collaborating internally to execute successful account plans and commercial initiatives
This is a role for someone who understands that premium brands aren't sold.
They're earned.
Someone who knows how to create partnerships, influence decision makers and recognise opportunities before anyone else does.
It's consultative.
It's relationship‑led.
And when it's done well, it creates partnerships that last for years.
Fancy building the next chapter of one of hospitality's most respected premium brands? We'd love to hear from you.
