Key Account Manager Automotive
Thornley Corporate Solutions, Auburn Hills, MI, United States
Key Account Manager Automotive (Functional Plastics)
$135k + Bonus + Car Allowance
Location: Michigan (remote with travel)
We are hiring a Key Account Manager to help double a $15m North American automotive business to $30m+ in the next 2 to 3 years, backed by already awarded programs and nomination letters.
This is not a maintenance role. You will be expected to win business, grow accounts, and add around $10 to $15m in revenue as part of the wider sales effort.
What you will do
Own and grow key Tier 1 accounts
Win new programs and increase content per vehicle
Lead pricing, negotiation, and commercial strategy
Work cross functionally with engineering and operations
Expand business with Tier 1s, including Japanese and Korean customers
What you will bring
Strong automotive B2B sales or key account management experience
Proven track record selling into Tier 1 suppliers
Experience working on complex, multi year automotive programs
Evidence of delivering revenue growth in the millions
Background selling technical or engineered components
Experience with functional plastics or similar components used in suspension, steering or braking is ideal. Candidates from interior plastics will be considered if they have strong automotive sales experience and can adapt quickly to a more functional product focus.
Role profile
50 to 60 percent account management and growth, with the remainder focused on new business
Comfortable operating in a lean, high visibility environment
Ambitious, organized and proactive
Willing to travel across the US, including regular travel to Western New York
Why it is worth a conversation
Real growth from $15m to $30m+, backed by awarded business
Autonomy to shape strategy in a lean structure
Visibility with direct access to leadership and fast decisions
Turnaround story with strong backing
Strong benefits package including bonus, car allowance, 401(k) match, and 80% medical coverage.
If you have sold into Tier 1 suppliers and want a role where you can genuinely move the needle, get in touch.
