The Opportunity
We’re hiring a commercially driven Account Manager to join a growing business within the logistics sector, playing a critical role in driving sustainable revenue growth while protecting and expanding an existing customer base. This is a high‑impact, hands‑on role sitting at the intersection of Sales, Customer Services, and Finance - ideal for someone who thrives on structure, ownership, and accountability.

The role rewards consistency, commercial thinking, and data‑led execution.

- Identify upsell, cross‑sell and expansion opportunities using activity, trend, and credit analysis
- Re‑engage down‑trading or inactive customers through targeted outbound call campaigns
- Convert stalled or lost quotes into active bookings by addressing root causes and re‑positioning solutions
Cross‑Functional Alignment
- Work closely with Customer Services and Finance using a structured Sales–CS–Finance model
- Proactively manage customer ageing and debt exposure
- Align commercial activity with credit risk to protect margin and revenue
- Own weekly priority customer lists and ensure proactive engagement where activity has dropped
Systems & Reporting
- Use HubSpot as the single source of truth for call cycles, pipeline, account activity, onboarding, and retention
- Maintain accurate, action‑focused reporting that drives decisions and follow‑up
What Success Looks Like
- Reduced customer attrition and stalled trading
- Increased wallet share across the existing logistics customer base
- Faster, more structured conversion of new business
- Strong alignment between Sales, Customer Services, and Finance
- Consistent, disciplined execution with clear ownership
About You
- Commercially minded with experience in account management, sales, or a fast‑paced service environment
- Comfortable with outbound calling, structured follow‑up, and managing multiple accounts
- Data‑driven, organised, and proactive - nothing slips through the cracks
- Enjoys working cross‑functionally to solve problems and drive results
- Thrives in a full‑time, office‑based environment with clear expectations
What’s On Offer
- £30,000–£35,000 basic salary (Depending on Experience)
- £40,000 OTE with achievable, transparent targets
- 5 days a week in the office (Poynton)
- A role with genuine ownership, visibility, and progression for high performers
If you’re looking to build momentum in a commercially focused logistics environment where your execution directly impacts revenue and customer retention, this role offers both challenge and long‑term opportunity.
