Graduate Account Manager

Graduate Account Manager
Partnerships & Consultative Sales
Salary: £30,000 + Bonus benefits
Location: Farringdon, London (hybrid, 3 days in the office)

Our client is a specialist R&D consultancy working with high-growth, innovation-led UK businesses. This is a partnership role working with existing clients and requires an inquisitive, engaging, confident style. Personality, rather than experience is key.

As a Sales Associate you will help build and develop long-term referral relationships with accountancy firms across the UK.

This is not a transactional sales role. It's about credibility, trust and understanding when R&D tax moves from generalist advice into specialist territory.

What you'll be doing

* Building and managing a portfolio of accountancy firms
* Researching firms to understand client mix, sectors and R&D exposure
* Engaging partners and senior managers through thoughtful, professional outreach
* Explaining when and why specialist R&D advice is required
* Coordinating introductions between accountants, clients and our technical team
* Supporting client meetings as part of a wider consultative sales process
* Managing referrals, relationships and activity through CRM
* Attending relevant accountancy, tax and finance events
* Feeding market insight back into the wider business

About you

This role suits someone who enjoys:

* Relationship-led, consultative communication style
* Inquisitive, with excellent communication skills
* Comfortable speaking to accountants without hard selling
* Motivated by building long-term partnerships rather than quick wins

What's on offer

* £32,000 salary + Bonus / Commission
* Excellent onboarding
* Curated external sales training post-induction
* 25 days' holiday plus bank holidays
* Flexible benefits platform (5% salary contribution)
* Pension, life assurance & PMI (post-probation)
* Modern offices in London
* Regular company socials
