Day in the life of an Account Manager...

TBR is a global company with global clients, therefore we need employees who can travel to meet with clients, build relationships and create new ones. An account manager is responsible for this vital role that keeps TBR competitive and reputable worldwide.






There is no average day for an Account Manager; we have to be ready to take a flight when and where the client needs us to be.” Carmen Alvarez (TBR Account Manager)



TBR account managers are based at TBR HQ in Glasgow, however they travel a lot of the time within Europe, meeting with clients and potential clients throughout the continent. The account managers based in the Glasgow office are both from major European cities with English being one of the many languages that they speak; therefore they will use their multilingual skills to communicate with clients and suppliers in their home countries.


The account managers will schedule a variety of meetings each time she goes travelling to meet clients, with the priority of creating a lasting relationship providing the best possible service. The customer is our top priority therefore we want to prove that our values resonate throughout all aspects of the organisation.


New contacts are created around the world by networking; establishing ourselves in a new country or city by creating relationships with new clients and suppliers. A lot of these new relationships will be through connections with existing clients. Each month the Account Managers will build a bank of potential clients in specific areas such as Medical/ Pharmaceuticals, Events, Corporate Travel, Financial Roadshows and VIP Transportation. She will get in touch with companies who require our type of solution and set up meetings to build the foundation of what will hopefully be a long lasting relationship with TBR.





TBR Account Managers are focussed on the human interaction of a relationship, meaning that the work they do is extremely flexible and they must be able to get on a plane and be in a different city the next day.
