Senior National Account Manager - Pro Retail United Kingdom

At Revlon, we create beauty innovations for everyone that inspire confidence and ignite joy every day. Breaking beauty boundaries is in our company’s DNA. Since its game‑changing launch of the first opaque nail enamel in 1932 (and later, the first long‑wear foundation), Revlon has provided consumers with high‑quality product innovation, performance, and sophisticated glamour. Elizabeth Arden made waves as a woman‑led beauty company in the 1920s. In 1931, Almay became the original hypoallergenic, fragrance‑free beauty brand. Today, Revlon resiliently continues its legacy as a leading global beauty company. Our diverse portfolio—which consists of some of the world’s most iconic brands and product offerings in color cosmetics, skincare, hair color & care, personal care, and fragrances—is sold around the world through prestige, professional, mass, and direct‑to‑consumer retail channels.
