National Account Manager - M&S (Fresh Produce / FMCG)
Location: Spalding (Hybrid - 3 days on site)
Salary: 35,000 - 45,000 + bonus

About the Role

We're partnering with a well-established supplier into UK retail to recruit a National Account Manager to support and develop the M&S account across defined categories.

This is a great opportunity for someone already operating at Account Manager level, or an ambitious Account Executive ready to step up, to take on more ownership within a fast-paced, commercially driven environment.

You'll work closely with M&S buyers and internal teams to drive category performance, support product development, and deliver commercially sound, insight-led plans.

• Manage day-to-day activity across the M&S account
• Support and deliver annual account plans and commercial targets
• Analyse category performance and identify growth opportunities
• Manage forecasts, pricing, and promotional activity
• Coordinate product development briefs and range changes
• Work cross-functionally with supply chain, procurement, technical, and operations
• Monitor competitor and market trends to support strategy

• Experience managing or supporting retail accounts (ideally M&S or similar retailer)
• Background within fresh produce, FMCG, or a related category
• Strong commercial awareness with good analytical capability
• Confident communicator, able to build relationships internally and externally
• Organised, proactive, and comfortable working in a fast-paced environment

You'll be joining a business with a strong reputation in the market and a close working relationship with M&S. There's genuine opportunity to develop within the commercial team, taking on increased responsibility as the account continues to grow.
