About the Role

We're looking for a Key Account Executive to support our Foodstuffs South Island (FSSI) customers. This is a hands‑on role with a mix of admin, customer support, reporting, and sales support.

What You'll Do:

• Take ownership of volume and profit targets and help deliver promotional plans effectively.
• Build and maintain strong relationships with key grocery customers to support long‑term success.
• Use tools like SAP, TPM, Nielsen and Excel to track performance, spot opportunities, and help improve our product offering.
• Manage VMI processes to keep stock available, ensure customer satisfaction, and support the smooth launch of new products.
• Share regular updates with the sales team to help them improve performance and address distribution gaps.
• Work closely with customers to maintain stock levels and support timely product launches.

What you'll bring:

• Experience with VMI, forecasting, or supply chain is an advantage (liquor or FMCG is helpful but not essential).
• Strong Excel skills, especially in analysing data, reporting and forecasting.
• Able to review inventory trends, identify issues, and find practical solutions.
• Good organisational and admin skills to manage reporting, data accuracy and stock information.
• Keen to learn, adapt and grow your skills in this role.
