account manager - SITRA MEAT FACTORY

The responsibilities of account managers can vary depending on the industry they work in size of the company and nature of the business. Each customer account can vary in demands and an account manager may work with brand managers for one account and a media department for another. Account managers usually report directly to the account director or agency director of the activity and status of accounts and transactions. An account manager may also manage a single account or a variety of accounts depending on the requirement of the company. Although the responsibility can vary between companies and between accounts there is a shared set of common responsibilities which are as follows:

• Generate sales for a portfolio of accounts and reach the companys sales target2
• Identify new sales opportunities within existing accounts to retain a clientaccount manager relationship by upselling and crossselling2
• Manage and solve conflicts with clients2 The Account Manager is expected to have specific information regarding daily operations of the company and keep the Client updated.
• Interact and coordinate with the sales team and other staff members in other departments working on the same account2
• Establish budgets with the client and company4
• Meet time deadlines for accounts4

There are situations in which an account manager for example in advertising firms is responsible for more than one account and therefore looks after multiple clients. When account locations do not overlap the account manager can be placed at the divisional district or territory level. When a sales team has a senior sales manager the account manager coordinates sales accounts from other departments or specialties.1 In this scenario the sales team will work under the direct supervision of influencers and deciders instead of with a buyer.1

• Global account managers: Manage company accounts worldwide. This typically occurs in large companies with international accounts.1
• National account managers: Manage numerous accounts nationwide. This typically occurs in medium to large companies when a company has multiple locations across the country.1

Global account managers and national account managers may work together in a hierarchical or matrix structure. The trend is to move responsibility for the major key accounts to the global level.1
