A High-Impact Role at the Heart of Service, Relationships, and Commercial Growth

This is a rare opportunity to join a well-established manufacturing group in a brand-new role focused on transforming the customer experience while owning relationships with key B2B clients.

The business specialises in complex, made-to-order products and has grown significantly through acquisitions. Now, with new leadership and serious investment in systems, structure, and service, they’re ready for change — and they’re looking for someone who can bring fresh thinking and real impact.

The Role

As Customer and Key Accounts Manager, you’ll be responsible for both shaping the internal customer journey and managing key client relationships — combining strategy, hands-on process improvement, and commercial partnership.

What you’ll do:

  • Redesign how enquiries, quotes, and orders are handled for clarity, speed, and service
  • Create and embed SLAs and service standards across departments
  • Act as the primary point of contact for key accounts — ensuring exceptional service and long-term satisfaction
  • Identify and support growth opportunities within your accounts
  • Drive smarter use of HubSpot CRM, including workflows, automation, and insights
  • Champion a CX-first mindset — coaching teams and aligning service with client needs

This is a visible, cross-functional role with backing from the leadership team and the scope to shape how the business serves its clients now and in the future.

What You’ll Bring

You’ve worked in a B2B manufacturing or technical environment and understand the importance of both process and relationships when it comes to delivering real value.

You’ll bring:

  • A background in customer experience, key account management, or client success
  • Experience improving customer-facing processes across sales, ops, or service
  • Strong relationship skills — confident in managing complex or high-value clients
  • A commercial mindset — you can spot opportunities and know how to act on them
  • CRM familiarity (HubSpot is a plus) and an interest in tech-led service improvements
  • Energy, clarity, and a collaborative, solution-focused approach

What’s on Offer

  • Circa £50,000 salary
  • Liverpool-based role with flexible working hours and support for work-life balance
  • Autonomy and ownership — you’ll shape the role as you go
  • Direct influence on customer satisfaction, account retention, and business growth
  • A leadership-backed opportunity to build something meaningful from day one
  • A key position in a company investing heavily in its future — and yours

Ready to Build, Lead, and Grow?

If you’re passionate about delivering brilliant customer experiences and building trusted client relationships, this role gives you the platform — and the freedom — to make it happen.
