About the Role
Are you an experienced Client Leader, Client Services Manager, Account Director, or Senior Field Sales Leader with a proven track record in the FMCG retail – grocery, convenience, or other field marketing channels?
We're looking for an individual who truly understands the dynamics of field sales and outsourced sales solutions, having built their career either agency-side or brand-side. You'll have extensive experience leading large, geographically dispersed field teams through a management structure or directly, owning senior client relationships, and delivering exceptional commercial results within a fast-paced FMCG environment.
This is a senior strategic leadership role within Avidity Group (often known internally as Account Manager), and experience of managing large-scale field sales operations, alongside significant client ownership and P&L accountability, is essential.
Whether your experience has been gained across Grocery, Convenience, Impulse, On-Trade, Away From Home, Wholesale, or broader Retail channels, you'll bring a strong understanding of what it takes to drive performance, influence stakeholders, and deliver growth in a highly competitive FMCG retail market.

What You'll Be Doing
You'll lead the strategic client relationship, overseeing planning, performance, and commercial delivery across a medium to large field operation.
