Commercial Manager Huntingdon, Cambridgeshire | £37,000–£42,000 | Permanent
Ready to take ownership of a major retail account?
I'm working with a growing fresh produce business looking for a Commercial Account Manager to take full ownership of its Ocado account, while also supporting the development of its Marks & Spencer relationship alongside a Senior Commercial Manager.
This is a fantastic opportunity for an ambitious Account Executive, Junior Commercial Manager or established Account Manager who wants greater commercial responsibility and the chance to manage a major UK grocery customer.
The role
You'll be the main commercial contact for Ocado, building strong relationships with buyers and taking responsibility for the day-to-day performance and development of the account.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Your responsibilities will include:
- Managing and developing the Ocado account, identifying opportunities to drive sales and profitability.
- Building strong relationships with buyers and key customer stakeholders.
- Managing pricing, promotions, product setup and commercial reporting.
- Analysing sales and performance data to identify opportunities and potential risks.
- Working closely with planning, supply chain and operational teams to maintain excellent service and availability.
- Supporting the Senior Commercial Manager with the ongoing development of the M&S account.
About you
We're looking for someone commercially minded, analytical and confident building customer relationships.
You might already be managing your own account, or you could be an Account Executive or Junior Commercial Manager who's ready to take that next step.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You'll need strong communication skills, excellent attention to detail and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
Experience in fresh produce or the wider food industry would be beneficial, but isn't essential. We're equally interested in candidates from other FMCG backgrounds who can demonstrate strong commercial ability and the potential to take ownership of a major retail account.
Interested?
If you're looking for an opportunity to take genuine ownership of a high-profile retail account and develop your commercial career within a growing business, I'd love to hear from you.
