Description
About NVD
A family-owned business, established in 1980, NVD was set up to assist vehicle manufacturers in the timely and incident free distribution of their products. We’ve established ourselves as a one stop shop providing the three main pillars of outbound logistics, including transporting, storing and enhancing our customers’ vehicles, prior to delivery to their end location. Since 1980 NVD has been at the forefront of pioneering the digitisation of the FVL industry. As early adopters of emerging technology we have been able to introduce huge efficiencies saving time and money for our customers. Our unwavering commitment to progress and continual service improvement remains at the heart of our business today.
Role Summary
The Customer Operations Account Manager plays a pivotal role in managing the end-to-end operational process for key customer accounts - from port arrivals and processing orders, through to vehicle deliveries and aftercare. Based in our Southampton office, you will embed yourself within your accounts to fully understand their needs and ensure seamless service delivery at every stage.
Acting as the main point of contact between clients and internal teams, you will manage daily workflows, resolve service issues, and proactively identify opportunities to improve performance. You’ll stay close to the detail, track KPIs, and ensure all activity meets agreed service levels.
Beyond problem-solving, you’ll build trusted relationships with customers by understanding their operational priorities and translating them into actionable improvements. Internally, you’ll coordinate across departments to remove blockers, address issues, and drive continuous service enhancements.
This is not a sales role. It suits someone who is detail-oriented, confident engaging with clients at all levels, and motivated to deliver excellent customer outcomes through proactive, hands-on account management across the full service lifecycle.
