KAMs will have excellent interpersonal skills and be able to quickly win the trust of a range of people that include Care Home owners, residents, loved ones and care & catering staff.
The KAM team has historically been a great introduction to apetito with successful KAMs going on to win promotion both within the Care Homes team and other apetito divisions.
