FIL Delivery
Mississauga
Fil Delivery is a rapidly growing, best-in-class, beverage supply chain company. We provide end-to-end warehousing, picking, packing, and last-mile delivery of beer, wine, and spirits to retailers across the province — combining deep regulatory expertise with a proprietary analytics and delivery technology stack that gives our partners a level of visibility and operational performance that generalist logistics providers are not positioned to match.
Role
We are seeking a Key Account Manager, Retail to own and grow FIL Delivery's relationships with large retail banner accounts in the convenience and grocery channels — including Circle K and comparable multi-store chains. This is a proactive, commercially driven role with full end-to-end account ownership and meaningful visibility into the growth of the business.
The successful candidate will run named banner accounts from the ground up: building joint business plans, driving distribution and volume growth, and using FIL's store-level analytics to lead performance reviews with buyers and category teams. Critically, this person will also serve as the internal voice of their accounts — translating FIL's operational and data capabilities into commercial wins and feeding market signals back into our operations, technology, and commercial planning.
We are looking for a candidate with a CPG or retail key-account profile who is equally comfortable across a banner head office, a regional operations team, and the broader store network — someone who brings commercial rigour, analytical confidence, and the relationship depth to be a genuine partner to the buyers and category managers they work with.
(On-site Role : 2727 Meadowpine Blvd, Mississauga, ON L5N 0E1)

Maintain working fluency in Ontario's beverage-alcohol channel rules, including the LCBO wholesale framework, AGCO licensing and compliance requirements, and convenience and grocery channel eligibility criteria

Cross-functional alignment
Act as the internal voice of the banner — feeding account requirements, customer feedback, and market signals back into FIL's operations, technology roadmap, and commercial planning
Collaborate effectively across internal functions without direct authority, building credibility through insight, follow-through, and consistent results

3–5+ years in CPG sales, key account management, or category and trade marketing, ideally with direct experience calling on or working within national or regional retail banners in convenience, grocery, mass, or beverage-alcohol A demonstrated track record of owning named retail accounts and delivering sustained distribution and volume growth through structured joint business planning
