Cantonese/Mandarin Speaking Sales Account Manager
HIRING: A Sales Account Manager Ready to Grow With Us
*Creating Opportunities. Enriching Lives.* That's not a slogan we stuck on the wall. It's the reason Ocean King exists — for our customers, for our community, and for the people who work here.
So here's the real question: What can we do to make you better by walking through our doors?
Quite a lot, actually.
- We'll teach you a trade. Real wholesale, real food, real customers — the kind of commercial knowledge you can build a career on.
- We'll back you to grow. Hit your stride and there's a path here — to senior account management, team lead, key accounts, and beyond. We promote from within whenever we can.
- We'll invest in your skills. Product training, sales coaching, systems training on SAP Business One — you'll leave every quarter sharper than you started it.
- We'll give you a seat at the table. Your customer feedback shapes what we stock, how we sell, and where we grow. Your voice matters here.
- We'll surround you with good people. 29 years as a family business means something — there's a culture here that actually has your back.
We're the UK's go\-to wholesale supply chain for Far East Asian food service. SALSA certified. 29 years strong. Family\-built. We supply the skilled chefs and small business owners that feed this country's love affair with Asian food — and we're scaling fast, with serious growth plans ahead.
It's a brilliant time to join.
