About the role

Key Account Manager – Major Retail Accounts

Hills District | Hybrid | $110K–$130K + Super + Car Allowance + Incentives

An exciting opportunity is available for a Key Account Manager to join a global organisation within the animal health and consumer products sector and own a portfolio of major retail and e-commerce customers across Australia and New Zealand.
You will be responsible for building strong head-office relationships, managing commercial activity and bringing customer plans to life across some of Australia's largest retail channels.
The Role Working closely with internal sales, marketing, supply chain, finance and e-commerce teams, you will take ownership of key customer relationships and ensure commercial plans are effectively executed.

Your responsibilities will include:
  • Managing relationships with major national retail and e-commerce accounts
  • Developing and executing customer account plans across a 6–12 month horizon
  • Managing promotional calendars, activations and customer campaigns
  • Working closely with Marketing to deliver promotional activity
  • Leading commercial discussions and negotiating customer agreements and promotional rebates
  • Supporting range reviews and customer presentations
  • Identifying opportunities to grow revenue and expand product distribution

  • Working with Supply Chain to resolve stock and fulfilment requirements
  • Gathering market and competitor intelligence through occasional store visits
  • Supporting new product launches and securing ranging opportunities
  • Maintaining strong relationships with customers and internal stakeholders
This is not a high-volume cold-calling role. Success is measured through customer relationships, revenue, budget performance, commercial outcomes and effective execution.
 
About You

We are looking for a commercially minded and relationship-focused Account Manager who enjoys working with major customers and wants to take ownership of their accounts.

You will ideally have:
  • Experience in Key Account Management, Account Management or Customer Management
  • Exposure to major retail, big-box or FMCG customers
  • Experience managing commercial relationships with head-office stakeholders
  • Strong negotiation and relationship management skills
  • Experience working with promotional campaigns and customer activations
  • Strong organisational and planning skills
  • An analytical mindset and confidence working with sales data
  • The ability to manage multiple customers, projects and priorities simultaneously
  • Excellent communication and presentation skills
  • A current driver's licence and willingness to travel occasionally
Pet industry experience is advantageous but not essential. We are particularly interested in candidates with strong FMCG, consumer products, retail, pharmaceutical/healthcare or similar commercial backgrounds.
 
What's On Offer?
  • $110,000–$130,000 + Super + car allowance + bonus
  • Hybrid working arrangements
  • Major national retail accounts
  • National and occasional international travel
  • Structured onboarding and comprehensive training
