Based in the North of England since 1947, Chelsom’s reputation stands firm as one of the longest standing and well-established vendors in this specialist field. By having proven relationships for many years with major hotel groups, cruise ship operators, interior designers, architects, shipyards, contractors, and procurement groups, Chelsom has secured large scale projects with the biggest names in the industry from all around the world. Amongst their clients are Carnival Cruise Lines, Royal Caribbean Cruises, Disney Cruise Lines, Hilton, Marriott, Four Seasons Hotels and Resorts, Mandarin Oriental, Center Parcs and Virgin Voyages.

Chelsom are enormously proud to have won two Queen’s Awards for Enterprise in the International Trade category in both 2017 and 2020. As the UK’s highest official awards for British businesses, they come in recognition of Chelsom’s ever-increasing overseas sales presence and are largely due to the vast growth experienced in the global marine sector over the last decade. Chelsom has sales teams in Europe, USA, Asia, and The Middle East who service interior designers, hotel groups, cruise operators, shipyards, and other organisations around the world. Their global portfolio spans a multitude of countries with completed projects in Sydney, Hong Kong, Paris and New York to name a few.

**Purpose**
- A brand-new role has been created to join an exciting, fast-paced team to look after a fast-growing market at Chelsom.
- The Marine market continues to be a substantial growth area for Chelsom, and more resource is needed to bolster the sales activities within this specialist field.

This might include anything from large scale one-off public area light fittings to vast production runs where 6000+ table lamps are manufactured for cabin interior schemes. Each of these projects requires substantial project management and more horsepower is needed in the team to help oversee this.
- 2023 saw Chelsom’s record turnover year in the marine market and the 2024 pipeline looks as strong as ever so this new role is being created to help sustain this exciting growth trajectory.

**Duties and Tasks** - **Primary Responsibilities**
- The ongoing management of a set of key customer accounts within the marine sector. This will include interior designers, outfitters, cruise operators and shipyards.

- Work with all existing major marine customers to ensure client relations are prioritised and that all clients are regularly updated with all of Chelsom’s product and service offerings.
