National Account Manager – Retail

Homebased
Up to £60k + Car + bonus

Our client:

A global £1bn+ FMCG business with a growing footprint in the UK retail channel. Operating across the UK and European markets, the company supplies a broad range of food products into major grocery retailers, foodservice operators and manufacturing customers worldwide. With continued investment across operations, sustainability and innovation, the business has experienced consistent growth and continues to strengthen its position within the FMCG landscape. They are now looking to appoint a dynamic National Account Manager to join them in a newly created role within the team.

The National Account Manager role:

The National Account Manager plays a critical development role within the Retail Sales team, supporting both the growth of existing national accounts and the acquisition of new business across the retail landscape. This will primarily be a discounter led retail facing role, with strong existing business in the likes of Iceland, Lidl, SPAR, Heron Foods & Farmfoods. The National Account Manager will have full P&L ownership of these customers and work with the new business team to develop wider opportunities. Our client’s product portfolio spans both branded & private label, short and long shelf-life products… so versatility is key! This is a hands-on role perfect for a self-starter who can manage tenders, JBP’s & open doors. You will be broad thinking, curious, ready to roll up your sleeves and hit the ground running!

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
