Account Manager – Electronics Manufacturing
Up to £50,000 basic salary
Select Talent is delighted to be supporting a leading electronics manufacturing business with the appointment of an Account Manager.
We are looking for someone with strong, client-facing account management experience, ideally supporting customers within aerospace, defence, high-end industrial, medical or similarly demanding manufacturing sectors.
The business provides electronics manufacturing and supply chain solutions, working closely with customers on complex products and programmes where quality, reliability and service are critical.
The Role
You will take ownership of a portfolio of existing customers, building strong relationships, understanding their priorities and ensuring the business delivers against its commitments.

Working across engineering, procurement, production and sales, you will ensure customer requirements are understood and projects progress smoothly. Alongside service delivery, you will hold commercial responsibility for account growth, pricing discussions and contract renewals.
