We build premium, high-quality toy brands that are reshaping the industry in South Africa. With deep retail relationships across the country's leading retailers, our brands compete side by side with global players — from mass-market to premium specialist stores.

This is a unique opportunity to join an entrepreneurial environment where you'll work with some of the strongest stakeholders in the retail industry, be challenged and positioned for personal and professional growth.

Role Overview

As a KAM, you'll manage key retail accounts end-to-end — from merchandising execution to sell-in meetings with buyers.

• Monitor planogram compliance and resolve issues
4. Customer Engagement and Activation

• Plan and conduct retail staff training

• Coordinate with retailer marketing and social media teams

• Initiate and manage in-store activations and promotions

• Stimulate sell-through with appropriate strategies
5. Sales Analysis, Reporting and Strategy

• Track sales performance by SKU and customer

• Identify gaps and make range recommendations/ adjustments

• Collaborate internally to align on product, supply, and marketing

• Propose campaigns or initiatives to drive performance

Required Experience and Expertise
We are looking for a candidate who has:

• Experience in Key Account Management, Sales Executive, or a similar role in FMCG, toys or retail

• Experience managing large retail customers/ partners

• Proven ability to work independently and own an account end-to-end

• Strong communication and relationship-building skills
