  • Ensuring Compliance: Ensure adherence to all contractual agreements, regulatory requirements, and company policies while conducting business with national account customers.
  • Driving Customer Satisfaction: Proactively address customer inquiries, concerns, and issues to uphold high levels of customer satisfaction and loyalty within national accounts.
  • Financial Management: Effectively manage budgets, promotional funds, and expenses related to account activities.
  • Strategic Planning: Contribute to the development of long-term strategic plans for the soft drinks business by providing insights and recommendations based on sector performance and market dynamics.
  • Adapting to Market Changes: Remain agile and responsive to shifts in the soft drinks market, consumer preferences, and competitive landscape, adjusting strategies and tactics accordingly.
  • Representing the Company: Serve as a brand ambassador at industry events, trade shows, and customer meetings to promote brand awareness and cultivate positive relationships with stakeholders.
