What employers expect from a Key Account Manager

Key account managers look after a small number of strategic customers – frame contracts, annual price negotiations and an international account team – and grow the share of wallet.

Key account managers develop a small number of large customers – OEMs, groups or international accounts. They negotiate frame agreements, coordinate project teams across plants and countries, defend prices in annual talks and look for the next application inside the account. Employers expect commercial maturity, patience for long decision processes and the standing to speak to purchasing, engineering and management alike.
