My client is a well-established and highly respected UK-based manufacturing business, with over four decades of experience supporting customers across a wide range of industries.

• Build and maintain long-term, trusted relationships

The Ideal Account Manager will have:

Proven experience in customer account management within a manufacturing or electronics environment
Strong communication skills and the ability to influence and negotiate with senior stakeholders
A proactive, detail-oriented approach with excellent planning and multitasking abilities
Commercial awareness and the ability to sense-check data and identify issues early

A clean UK driving licence and willingness to travel for occasional customer visits
