Delivering to a variety of customers in both the private and public sector from small independent cafe owners, local health trusts and schools to national hotel and restaurant chains.

As the exclusive recruitment partner for Bunzl Catering, Cast UK have been instructed to recruit a Regional Account Manager for their Public Sector team covering the Midlands & South region. This is a purely new business role in a sector that has huge potential for Bunzl hence they are now looking to recruit a highly driven candidate with the ability to foster new relationships across the region. The role will be field based and include travel across the network to customers. The Regional Sales Manager will offer an unrivalled consultative approach to working with customers with a view to gaining trust and long-term business.

Key Responsibilities

• Producing new business plans for new customer portfolios across the public sector
• Negotiating terms, ensuring all agreements are correctly contracted
• Maintain and develop a robust pipeline of growth opportunities in order to meet defined growth expectations
• Manage relationships within your customer portfolio, providing best in class customer service
• Visit customer sites / outlets as required

Candidates are sought who had ideally had some previous exposure to field sales, preferably in the public sector. Experience across the hospitality sector would also be highly desirable. Bunzl will however be interested in confident, outgoing and ambitious candidates who have the ability to pick up this role. The ability to self manage your time is critical as is the ability to always put the needs of the customer first. Being able to add value to customers is essential, and you must be able to demonstrate how you have added value across multiple customers; both existing and new business. Basic Microsoft Office skills are required, in particular Excel. A tenacious, determined and customer focused outlook is what will serve candidates well in this process.

This is a field-based role that will involve travel throughout the Midlands and South, therefore you must be a self starter with the ability to effectively and efficiently plan your own diary.
