Key Account Manager - East Midlands
UK East
£65,000 - £70,000
You might be feeling held back by too much admin, or a lack of influence over the bigger picture. You want products you can be proud of, long-term relationships you can invest in, and the autonomy to grow market share in your territory. At the same time, you want visibility, progression, and earning potential that reflects the work you put in.
This Key Account Manager role gives you that balance. You’ll work with a market-leading surgical portfolio that’s expanding its presence in the UK, with the freedom to manage accounts strategically and build lasting partnerships. Alongside a bonus and accelerator, you’ll join a business that genuinely cares about its people, its community, and the impact it has, while supporting you to progress and grow your career.
Who’s it for and what’s in it for you?
Our client is all about saving clinical staff time, whilst simultaneously improving patient outcomes. They’ve got a wide range of products – from surgical sealants to ophthalmic instruments – that are designed from years of listening to surgeons and what they really need.
This theme of listening continues into how they treat their people, too. By joining them you join a culture that’s built on celebrating every single person for what they bring to the table. They’re all about supporting everyone to contribute in a way that’s authentic to them and has a real impact, as well as helping people grow in their careers. And now’s a great time to join them as they continue to grow!
Plus, they’re big on giving back through their commitment to supporting their community. Think volunteering and celebration days, charity fundraising, and more.
