Key Account Manager of the Year Award
Key Account Manager Of The Year
It could be you!
Are you a great Key Account Manager? Do you know a great Key Account Manager?
At last!
The Key Account Manager of the Year Award gives you the chance to demonstrate your value
We’ll be looking to showcase key account managers who have done something notable in KAM, whether something particularly exciting this year or steadily over the last three years. You may be in any sector, country or size of the organisation, that’s not important.
We want to know what YOU have done, regardless of whether your organisation is supportive of KAM or not. KAM doesn’t only apply to large companies – we really welcome entries from smaller organisations.
This award is open to all
You don’t have to be an AKAM member to nominate someone or enter yourself for Key Account Manager of the Year 2023.
Applications by 31st December 2023
The judges will be looking for:
- Depth and breadth of customer understanding
- Creativity (of any kind – offer or support or new approach)
- Customer value
- Contribution to your organisation’s strategic objectives.
