THE ROLE

Key Account Manager

A Key Account Manager is responsible for representing the presence of the brand. The role consists of building key relationships with buyers and key decision makers within the Fashion and Sportswear industry to drive business through account management and new business development.

Didriksons addressed the need to recruit a Key Account Manager after the position was created due to the team expanding. The client had originally been using another agency to recruit for this position but had struggled finding the ideal candidate within the individuals that they offered. This lead onto the client bringing The Advocate Group on board to help meet the challenge.
