New Key Account Manager has no idea

The good thingsSome great guys in the team

The challengesThe new Key Account Manager has no idea what he is doing, and we are losing contracts because of him. Hiring staff with no experience within the industry is doing damaging to the company. He can't talk to people, has no customer service skills at all, and has no idea about the products within the company

Work somewhere else.

The good thingsThe pay is about the only thing good here, but the expectations are insane

The challengesWhilst I appreciate businesses are here to make money, to do it to the absolute detriment of your staff and customers, whilst management all pat each other on the back is a bit low.
