Territory Development Manager / Account Manager
Job Type : Permanent, Full Time
Salary : £28000 – £30000/annum Bonus, Company Car and Other Benefit
As a salesperson, it’s all well and good being a competitive, entrepreneurial go-getter with the hunger and drive to be number one – but why settle for being a hidden cog in a massive wheel? Because there’s more to job satisfaction than numbers and pound signs, and your success in Sales, Business Development or Account Manager role can mean so much more than just a list of transactions.
At KBE Drinks, the flagship business behind Kingfisher, your role isn’t just a job, it’s a career. Instead of just selling, this is your opportunity to develop and inspire the growth of our company. Forget the 9-5 grind in a run-of-the-mill corporate office, this is an autonomous field-based role putting you at the spearhead of our business, our team, and our journey.
Sure, you might not recognise KBE as a household name in its own right – but our brands are some of the most highly regarded premium highflyers out there. Instead of selling a tiring mainstream beer brand you’ll be dealing with beer heavyweights such as Kingfisher and Sagres, and quirky up-and-comers such as Yeastie Boys and super premium spirits.

Just six years ago, KBE was a one-brand, one-channel business. Now, we’re a multi-beer, cider brand, and spirit business. From propositions to acquisitions, our future is packed with potential – and, as our next Territory Development Manager, you won’t just join us for the ride; you’ll define and refine it.
Do you offer…?
At least six months of sales experience – B2B or B2C – in any industry
A valid UK driving licence
As our next Territorial Development Manager, you’ll be working on 40 calls per week targeting visits to Indian restaurants from Monday to Thursday, predominantly in the evenings.
You’ll be covering our Northwest region, which spans from Chester up to Carlisle. The most central point of the region is Manchester. You’ll nurture existing clients and bring on new business.
Territorial sales can be functional and isolating in some businesses, but not here. On the road, you’re not out of sight and out of mind. We throw company-wide events inclusive of our nationwide sales team. KBE prides itself on a family-like environment with empowering values and team spirit.
The Extras…
25% annual bonus – personal and company performance related
25 days of annual leave plus bank holidays on top
Company car
Company pension – 5% employer contribution
Life assurance (paid up to four years of salary)
Group income protection
