South Asian Channel | East London & South London | Field Based | Up to 25% Annual Incentive Plan | Company Car or Car Allowance 

Love winning new business, building customer relationships and seeing the results of your hard work?

At Westmill, we're looking for a commercially minded Customer Manager to help grow some of the UK's best known food brands across East and South London. From Elephant Atta and Rajah to Patak's, Lucky Boat and Green Dragon, our brands are enjoyed by millions of consumers. Now we're looking for someone with the energy, ambition and commercial instinct to get them into even more stores and businesses.

If you enjoy getting out into the market, developing relationships, spotting opportunities and making things happen, this could be the opportunity for you.

The Opportunity

As our Customer Manager, you'll take ownership of an established customer portfolio while identifying and winning new business across your territory.

You'll work predominantly with customers in East London, with some customers in South London, developing our presence across the South Asian and wider specialist food markets.

This is a field based role where you'll have the freedom to manage your territory, build relationships and make a real commercial impact, supported by our Senior Customer Manager and wider sales team.

What you'll be doing

• Building strong relationships with existing customers and identifying opportunities to grow their business with Westmill.
• Winning new customers and developing new business opportunities.
• Increasing the distribution, visibility and sales of our leading food brands.
• Developing customer and territory plans that drive volume, revenue and margin.
• Negotiating with customers to secure new listings and promotional opportunities.
• Spending time in the market, understanding customers, competitors and emerging opportunities.
• Working closely with colleagues across Sales, Marketing and Customer Services to deliver results.

What we're looking for

We're looking for someone who combines a passion for sales with the commercial ability and determination to deliver results.

You'll have experience in a customer facing sales role within FMCG, foodservice, wholesale or a similar environment, with a track record of growing accounts and developing new business. Experience within the South Asian food market would be particularly welcome, but it's not essential.

You'll also bring:

• Strong relationship building, influencing and negotiation skills.
• A proactive approach to finding and winning new business.
• Commercial awareness and the ability to turn customer insights into sales growth.
• Excellent organisation and territory management skills.
• The confidence and motivation to work independently.
• A full UK driving licence and flexibility to travel across your territory.

Above all, we're looking for someone who enjoys meeting customers, building relationships and turning opportunities into results.

Why Westmill?

We're one of Europe's largest specialist food businesses and part of Associated British Foods, a global food group. Our portfolio includes some of the most recognised and loved brands in authentic Asian food. But it's our people who make the difference. At Westmill, you'll be part of a collaborative business where your ideas are valued, your contribution matters and you'll have the opportunity to make a genuine impact.

Alongside a competitive salary, we offer:

• Up to 25% Annual Incentive Plan
• Choice of company car or car allowance
• Private Healthcare
• ABF Pension Scheme membership
• Option to buy additional annual leave
