National Account Manager | South
A Strategic National Account Opportunity
An exciting opportunity has arisen to join a market-leading manufacturer with a strong reputation for quality, innovation and service.
This is not a traditional account management role.
We are looking for a commercially astute, analytical and strategic National Account Manager to take ownership of a significant £5m revenue channel, managing and developing a portfolio of approximately 40 active accounts across the UK, with the majority concentrated throughout the South of England.
The successful individual will inherit an established and performing channel with strong existing relationships already in place. The focus will be on identifying growth opportunities, strengthening partnerships, improving performance and delivering long-term commercial success.
This role would suit an ambitious Area Sales Manager, Regional Sales Manager or Key Account Manager looking to step into a broader and more strategic position where they can have a direct influence on business performance, customer growth and channel development.
The Opportunity
Working closely with senior leadership, you will be responsible for managing a network of key partner accounts, developing strategic growth plans and driving performance through a structured, data-led approach.
The role requires someone who enjoys working with numbers, analysing trends, identifying opportunities and translating insight into commercial action.
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.
Whilst relationship management is critical, this position goes far beyond maintaining accounts. We are looking for someone capable of challenging existing ways of working, introducing new ideas and helping shape the future direction of the channel.
You will be responsible for:
- Managing approximately 40 active partner accounts
- Developing strategic account plans and growth initiatives
- Analysing sales performance, market trends and customer data
- Identifying opportunities to increase revenue and profitability
- Building strong long-term relationships with key decision makers
- Conducting regular business reviews and performance meetings
- Supporting customers with commercial planning and growth strategies
- Collaborating with internal sales, marketing and operational teams
- Driving accountability and performance across the account portfolio
Who We're Looking For
We are seeking an individual who combines strong commercial awareness with excellent relationship management skills.
You may currently be operating as:
- Area Sales Manager
- Regional Sales Manager
- Key Account Manager
- Business Development Manager
and be looking for something more strategic and commercially focused.
The successful candidate will be:
- Analytical and data-driven
- Commercially sharp and growth-oriented
- Highly organised and structured
- Comfortable managing multiple stakeholders
- Strong at building trust and long-term relationships
- Confident in presenting commercially and strategically
- Self-motivated and capable of working autonomously
