Description
As a Key Account Manager, you thrive on connectivity and possibility. Without you, customer communication drops and business stops. You're an inspiring relationship builder who bonds brands with businesses and consumers.


This is not the role for a pigeon-holed KPI robot; at KBE Drinks, our newly created Key Account Manager roles span multiple channels and a rich variety of customers.

This is agile, fast-paced, and dynamic work that unleashes your potential, not boxes it.

In KBE Drinks, you'll be representing a fast-growing multi-beer, cider brand, and spirit business.

We're the UK flagship for international brands such as Kingfisher, Sagres, Sapporo, and Dos Equis - plus super-premium spirits and craft collaboration withYeastie Boys.

Also, our recently formed innovation team has created and launched two new spirit brands within 12 months.

Instead of a narrow Account Manager role within a fixed business space, this position spans off-trade, convenience, and cash-and-carry.

You'll be developing existing business as well as both exploring new opportunities across off trade and picking up anestablished customer base.


Do You Offer ?

  • At least two years of sales experience in a customerfacing or account management role in the drinks sector or FMCG
  • Demonstrable success in working with customers and delivering a joint business plan
  • Previous experience requiring selfmanagement and remote/hybrid working
  • Microsoft Office proficiency. Experience regularly using Outlook, PowerPoint, and Excel


In this Key Account Manager role, you'll be working with a diverse, modern, and fluid portfolio of brands, dealing with a broad range of customers.

This is a nationwide role involving travel and meetings you'll arrange and manage within healthy working hours.
We expect only occasional on-site attendance in our Kent office (ME20 6RZ).

Empowered across all levels of P&L, you'll be integral to customer discussions and a variety of operational approaches. Forget rounds of internal signoffs and stop-start change; this is agile, entrepreneurial working with clear and tangible impact.


If you have a flair for building rapport with colleagues and customers as well as that knack for understanding and presenting a compelling case for why a brand that you're selling is right for a specific business and its consumers, this is the role for you.

This is your opportunity to play a direct role in evolving KBE's future. Just six years ago, we were a one-brand, one-channel business. Here's to the next six years

  • 20% annual bonus personal and company performance related
  • 25 days of annual leave plus bank holidays on top
  • Car allowance
  • Company pension 5% employer contribution
