Do you thrive on building strong client relationships and being the go-to person for your customers? Are you someone who spots the detail others miss and takes pride in delivering exceptional service in a fast-paced environment? If this sounds like you, a rapidly growing specialist manufacturing business is looking for an Internal Account Manager to join their team and play a key role in managing and developing high-value client relationships.

This high-growth, customer-focused manufacturer operates within the FMCG sector, working with major drinks brands, coffee chains, and supermarket suppliers.

  • Support and manage NPD processes, from concept through to delivery

Ideal candidates will have experience in internal account management, customer service, or a similar client-facing role. A background in manufacturing or FMCG is preferred but not essential. Candidates should be commercially aware and confident working with forecasts and account performance.
