Summary
We are excited to advertise a fantastic opportunity to join the Altro team as a Key Account Manager for Leisure, Hospitality and Retail.
The main objective of the role is to accelerate growth with blue chip end user groups within these sectors. We already have a long list of prestigious customers who are all household names from the high street to high end hotel groups.
We are looking for someone dynamic and driven, ideally with experience and existing relationships who can hit the ground running and make an instant impact.
This role has become available due to the retirement of a team member and a significant handover period has been factored in to avoid any customer disruption. We are ideally looking at a start date of May or June.

The successful candidate will be part of the Altro Specification North Team and report to our Head of Specification North. This team includes another 4 Key Account Managers (one for Leisure, Hospitality & Retail, two for Social Care and one for Healthcare and Education) and 7 Specification Consultants who have a focus on the UK A&D community to build relationships and gain Altro product specifications within our core sectors.
What we’re looking for:
We’re after someone driven and genuinely up for the challenge. You’ll bring experience in construction sales to end users across hospitality, retail or leisure, plus solid spec and technical sales knowledge. Strong on pricing, organised, great with admin, creative in your approach and confident presenting. You will be proactive, personable, able to network and entertain clients, and always ready to make things happen.
As well as an exciting opportunity and a competitive salary, what do we have offer?
Team based bonus scheme
Car allowance
Private medical cover via our supplier BUPA
Starting holiday entitlement of 25 days, with the option to buy more
Defined contribution pension scheme
Life assurance from day one
