National Account Manager - Out of Home (OOH)

DASH Water
London

In a world where old school soft drinks, unnecessary food waste and outdated business practices are a thing of the past, DASH is leading the healthy hydration revolution. We infuse our super tasty waters with real wonky fruit. That’s the bent, crushed, misshapen fruit that supermarkets say no to. No sugar, no sweeteners, no worries.

DASH launched in 2017 and has quickly become the market leading brand in a category that has grown over 60% YoY in the UK. DASH has an industry-leading DTC platform, and in 2026 we will sell over 56 million cans in 20+ international markets with notable retailers including: Sainsbury’s, Tesco, Waitrose, Ocado and M&S.

We are incredibly proud to say that we are a Certified B Corporation. We always intend to use our business as a force for good, and now it’s official.

The Role

We’re looking for an ambitious and commercially driven National Account Manager to lead and grow Dash Water’s presence within the Out of Home (OOH) channel. This role will own key national wholesale and foodservice accounts including Bidfood, Brakes, and DDC, while also managing and developing a team of two salespeople focused on winning new business and growing current accounts.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role suited to someone who thrives in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment and is excited to help scale a challenger brand. You'll manage and expand current accounts, open new routes to market, and deliver exceptional partnerships that reflect our brand values and commercial ambitions

• Line-manage and coach two Sales Executives (1 NAM, 1 NAE), setting clear targets and performance expectations.

• Support the team in pipeline management, customer engagement, and closing new business.

• Foster a high-performance, collaborative sales culture focused on results and continuous improvement.

Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Provide market insight, customer feedback, and competitor intelligence to inform strategy.

Requirements

  • Proven experience as a National Account Manager or Senior Account Manager within Out of Home, Foodservice, or Wholesale.
  • Strong experience managing national distributors such as Bidfood, Brakes, DDC, or similar.
  • A track record of delivering sustainable growth and winning new business.
