Description:



Trainee Account Manager – Marine Sector


Do you love boats, sailing, or anything to do with being out on the water? Looking for a role where you can build real relationships, learn the ropes, and grow into a full Account Manager position? If that sounds like you, this could be a great next step.


We’re looking for someone with natural people skills and a genuine passion for the marine world. Whether you’ve already had some client-facing experience or you’re eager to move into a role where you’ll support customers day‑to‑day, we can help you develop into a confident Account Manager.


What you’ll be doing



  • Supporting a portfolio of marine-sector clients and learning how to manage accounts independently.

  • Helping customers with queries, product information, and ensuring they’re getting the best service.

  • Getting to know the industry – from new technologies to the latest innovations in marine equipment.

  • Working closely with the commercial team to prepare quotes, proposals, and ongoing account updates.

  • Building long-term relationships and developing your own style of client engagement.


What we’re looking for



  • A genuine interest in boats, sailing, or the marine sector – professional experience is a bonus, not essential.

  • Someone who enjoys speaking with people and building rapport.

  • Strong organisation skills and a proactive, positive approach.

  • A willingness to learn and grow into a full Account Manager position.

  • Any previous customer-facing or office experience is helpful, but attitude and enthusiasm matter most.


Why join?



  • Clear development path into an Account Manager role.

  • Supportive team and hands-on training.

  • A chance to turn your passion for the water into your career.

  • Mix of office, client engagement, and occasional visits to marine sites/events.


If you’re excited by the idea of a long-term career in the marine sector and love the sound of a role that’s both client-focused and full of opportunity, we’d love to hear from you.
