 Make a difference as an Accounts Executive – Key Accounts  

Join us as an Account Executive and help us build lasting relationships with our customers! 

In this role, you will represent our full portfolio of brands, ESTO, NST, and PGL, giving you the flexibility to match customers with the solution that best meets their needs, creating stronger relationships and more successful sales outcomes, supporting them from their first enquiry right through to booking and beyond. Your mission? To deliver exceptional service, keep customers connected, and make sure every experience is one they’ll want to repeat. 

You’ll take ownership of driving growth across your designated accounts by creating tailored strategies that really make a difference. By staying proactive and building strong partnerships, you’ll play a key part in customer retention and satisfaction.

Working closely with our internal teams, you’ll also spot opportunities for referrals and showcase the benefits of PGL Beyond’s unique Trust collaboration service and our fantastic product portfolio. 

If you’re passionate about building relationships, love finding ways to add value, and want to make an impact in a role that’s all about people, this could be the perfect fit for you. 

Is this you? 

  • You’ve smashed sales targets before - and you’re ready to do it again. You know how to hit goals and love the buzz of achieving (and beating!) them.
  •  You’re a customer service champion - whether it’s over the phone or by email, you know how to connect with people and make their day.  
  • You’re super organised - great at managing your time, staying on top of tasks, and keeping things running smoothly.
  • You thrive under pressure - deadlines don’t scare you; you stay focused and deliver results when it counts.
  • You’ve got an eagle eye for detail - accuracy is your thing, and you take pride in getting things spot on.
  • You don’t just meet expectations - you go above and beyond to make every experience feel special. Whether it’s a thoughtful detail or a last-minute fix, you’re all about creating moments that clients remember for all the right reasons.
  • You’re a team player - ready to jump into our out-of-hours emergency rota a few times a year to help keep things running smoothly. 

A place to thrive 

We value excellence and personal advancement. We will prioritise your professional growth with tailored career development opportunities, mentorship programs and ongoing training.  

No matter your background, ethnicity, age, neurodivergence or anything else… PGL is a place to be yourself, realise your full potential and celebrate what makes you brilliantly unique

We hire the best talent and value a diverse, inclusive team; so, we are dedicated to ensuring our application process is accessible to everyone and are happy to provide helpful adjustments to make it easier to complete. Simply email or call us with detail around the adjustments you need. However, our top priority is the safety of the guests on our centres. Therefore, all centre based employees and some specific Head Office employees must undergo an Enhanced criminal record check (known as DBS or PVG), which we pay for. You will need to provide a 5-year address history and ID (such as passport/birth certificate). Convictions related to violence, drugs, or safeguarding may affect your application. Not all convictions will disqualify you, as we assess each case individually.
