STADA UK |Thornton & Ross | National Account Manager       

Remote / Work from home contract |U.K.| Full-time | Permanent

Step into a high-impact National Account Manager role where you’ll shape the success of some of the UK’s best-known consumer healthcare brands.

Working in the dynamic Pharmacy Channel across STADA UK’s Thornton & Ross and Natures Aid portfolios, you’ll own strategic relationships with major national accounts – driving profitable sales, spearheading new product launches, and maximising brand visibility in-store.

You’ll lead larger channel customers, build and execute strategic account plans, negotiate commercial agreements, and deliver against ambitious business objectives. Reporting to the Channel Controller and working closely with a Senior NAM, you’ll have clear support for your development and progression, while also playing a key role in coaching and supporting key account managers across the team.

If you’re a commercially sharp account manager ready to take ownership of sales fundamentals – from profit and distribution to promotional activity and customer engagement – this role puts you at the heart of STADA’s growth in UK pharmacy.

Drive profitable growth by securing smart promotions, optimising prices and investment, and winning incremental opportunities for STADA UK in the Pharmacy Channel.

Shape customer strategy by influencing retail buyers on must-stock lines, ranges, merchandising and NPD, backed by compelling performance stories and insight.

Be the trusted face of STADA: build strong relationships across buyers, supply chain, regulatory and internal teams, championing the customer and STADA’s mission and values.

Deliver best-in-class account management through accurate forecasting, budget control, promotion evaluation, and rigorous stewardship that meets all legal and compliance standards.

Consistently exceed sales, market share and profit targets while achieving personal objectives and contributing to STADA UK’s reputation in the UK OTC healthcare industry.

 

What We Are Looking For

Proven track record in national account management, sales or commercial roles with major UK customers, ideally in OTC and the Pharmacy channel.

Sharp commercial mind: strong financial acumen, analytical skills and high proficiency in Excel and PowerPoint.

Advanced negotiation and influencing ability, backed by excellent communication and presentation skills.

Strategic, creative and critical thinker, able to plan effectively, manage projects and juggle multiple priorities independently.

Collaborative, diligent and resilient team player with a strong customer focus.

Mobile and field-ready, holding a full UK driving licence

How we calculate "similar"

No black box, no LLM guesswork: a deterministic score built from four normalized attributes. Here's this role's own peer group at different match levels, so you can see the mechanism, not just the result.

Every comparison starts from the same 100-point budget: 25 for working in the same function, 40 for the same therapeutic area, 20 for the same or adjacent seniority, 15 for the same country. A dimension we can't confirm on both sides contributes nothing, never a guess, never a free pass.

Unmatched or unknown dimensions score exactly the same: 0 points, never a partial guess. A role we know almost nothing about beyond its function bottoms out at 25%; it never inflates to 100% just because there's little to compare against. Seniority uses a defined ladder (Associate → Manager → Associate Director → Senior → Principal → Director → Senior Director → Executive/VP) so "Director" and "Senior Director" count as adjacent, but "Director" and "Executive/VP" do not.
