  • Monitor market trends, competitor activity, and emerging opportunities.
About You
  • Proven experience within a Business Development Manager, Senior Business Development Manager, or National Account Manager role.

  • Essential: Previous experience working for a packaging supplier.

  • Essential: Experience operating in a quick sales response environment, demonstrating the ability to react rapidly to customer requirements, quotations, project timelines, and changing business demands.

  • Strong experience managing and growing relationships with large, high-profile accounts.

  • Solid understanding of branded packaging solutions and customer expectations.

  • Demonstrable success in generating new business and developing existing accounts.

  • Excellent commercial awareness, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.

  • Self-motivated, driven, and capable of operating at a strategic level.

  • Comfortable taking ownership of major customer accounts and delivering results independently.

What's on Offer?

  • Competitive salary of £70,000 per annum .

  • Potential for a hybrid working arrangement for highly motivated and experienced individuals.

  • Opportunity to manage and develop relationships with major household-name brands.

  • High-autonomy role with significant scope to make an impact.

  • Join a growing business with ambitious expansion plans.
Please note:
Due to the specialist nature of this position, candidates must have experience working for a packaging supplier and a strong background in branded packaging solutions. Experience managing large customer accounts and working within a fast-paced, quick-response sales environment is essential.
