Who We Are
ZURU is a reimagination company. We look for categories that have stood still, then we build next-generation products and brands that set the new standard. ZURU Toys is reimagining play. ZURU Edge is reinventing everyday consumer brands. Rhodes Pet Science is reimagining pet science. ZURU Tech is leading the next building revolution.
ZURU started in 2003 with two brothers from New Zealand, and we’re still founder-owned and operated today. Since then we’ve become the world’s second-biggest privately held toy company, and nearly half of all Gen Y and Gen Z households with kids in the US own a ZURU product. Today we’re 5,000 people in 34 offices, selling into more than 150 markets, backed by over 100 acres of fully automated manufacturing. And we’re only getting started.
The Opportunity
As Senior Key Account Manager, you’ll lead ZURU Toys’ Department, Farm, Home & Brokers channel, the largest book on our Grocery, Drug & Specialty team. You’ll own a broad portfolio of national accounts across craft and hobby, department stores, farm and ranch, and home improvement retailers, along with a group of broker and distributor partners. These retailers don’t want a Walmart or Target playbook. So you’ll build the channel strategy, craft a story for each account and find partners willing to test with ZURU, while acting as a senior voice and mentor for a close-knit sales team.
The Impact You’ll Make
In the short term, the SKAM brings focus and control to a large, complex account base: keeping every account and broker relationship moving, nothing falling through the cracks, and current programs delivering. Over the longer term, you’ll become the team’s expert in department, farm and home retail, growing ZURU’s share in the channel and developing the next generation of account managers.
What You’ll Do
Channel ownership – Own the Department, Farm, Home & Brokers channel end to end and set its strategy, so every account has a clear plan.
Financial ownership – Drive and exceed sales, margin and profitability targets across the portfolio.
Account & broker management – Lead relationships with buyers and broker partners; run line reviews, pitches, program set-up and the paperwork behind them.
Key account leadership – Grow ZURU’s largest accounts in the channel through joint business planning and strong buyer relationships.
In-store execution – Maximize distribution, seasonal and secondary placements, displays and promotions.
Pod leadership – Work with your Sales Analyst on reporting, forecasts, orders and line review prep, and coach them as they grow.
Cross-functional leadership – Champion account needs with NPD, Supply Chain, Demand Planning and Marketing, keeping in-stocks and service levels high.
Team mentoring – Act as a role model for the KAMs, JKAMs and analysts on the team.
What You’ll Bring
4–7 years’ account management experience with national retail accounts, including full P&L ownership and commercial negotiation.
Experience in department, farm & ranch, home, craft or specialty retail preferred; strong traditional CPG or toy backgrounds considered.
Experience working with brokers and distributors and managing many accounts at once – highly organized and able to handle a heavy admin load.
Strong knowledge of retail data (e.g. NIQ, Numerator, retailer POS) and the ability to turn insight into a buyer story.
Confident internal selling and stakeholder management, with experience coaching or mentoring others. US work authorization required.
Who thrives at ZURU
This isn’t a 9-to-5. We move fast, think big and set goals most companies would call impossible, then go after them. The people who thrive here are entrepreneurs at heart. They own their work, chase bold ideas and never stop raising the bar.
At ZURU, you drive your career, and we give you the platform to take it as far as you can. There are opportunities here that you won’t find anywhere else, and you’ll be surrounded by talented people who make things happen. We’re a true meritocracy: we reward impact, not tenure.
How we work
Big ideas happen when great people work side by side, so we’re office-first by design. Being together means faster collaboration, sharper decisions and stronger teams, and it’s where the real learning happens. Some flexibility may be available depending on the role, location and business needs, but most roles are office-based.

Growth Jobs in Arkansas: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a growth in Arkansas?
Growth roles in Arkansas do not require a state-issued license or registration. Most employers expect a bachelor's degree in business, marketing, or a quantitative field, along with hands-on experience driving user acquisition, retention, or revenue metrics. Building a portfolio of measurable campaign or product results, earning certifications in analytics or digital marketing, and targeting Arkansas's retail, technology, and financial services sectors are the most direct paths into these roles.
Which companies hire growths in Arkansas?
Companies currently hiring growths in Arkansas include ZURU, Walmart, and Murphy USA, per current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Arkansas's retail and consumer goods concentration, anchored in the Bentonville and northwest Arkansas corridor, means that growth roles here frequently sit inside large corporate strategy, e-commerce, and supplier partnership teams.
Which Arkansas cities have the most growth jobs?
Little Rock, Rogers, and El Dorado have the most growth openings in Arkansas. Bentonville and the northwest Arkansas metro are driven by Walmart's global headquarters and the dense supplier ecosystem surrounding it, while Little Rock concentrates growth talent across financial services, healthcare, and state government-adjacent technology firms.
Are there remote growth jobs in Arkansas?
Yes, and more than most fields, since growth work is largely analytical and strategic rather than hands-on. About 67% of growth openings tied to Arkansas are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the desk-based nature of most roles. Digital growth marketing, growth analytics, and revenue operations positions are the most likely to offer remote flexibility within Arkansas-based companies.
How can I get hired as a growth in Arkansas with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is a rotational or associate program inside one of Arkansas's large retail or consumer goods companies, where candidates without direct growth experience move into the function from adjacent roles in data analysis, marketing coordination, or e-commerce operations. Walmart and its affiliated vendor network frequently hire into entry-level analytics and marketing roles that feed into growth tracks. A portfolio showing a self-run experiment, a freelance campaign with measurable results, or a Google Analytics or HubSpot certification gives candidates a clear edge over others with similar academic backgrounds.
Where can I find and apply to growth jobs in Arkansas?
You can find and apply to growth jobs in Arkansas on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings across the state. Search the listings, find roles that match your background and location, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
