Are you our Account Manager New York / East Coast?

Imagine spending your working days in a company that breathes creativity. One that goes all out to bring to life the artistic ideas of event & entertainment professionals worldwide. An international group with headquarters in Belgium that still feels like a family.

With ShowTex fully expanding in North America with Offices in Montreal, New York and LA we are looking for you to be part of our New York Office, representing ShowTex in New York and the East Coast of the US.

Welcome to ShowTex!

LET US INTRODUCE OURSELVES

Do you know those drapes that define a theatre? Or the scenic fabrics that create a mood on stage? That's what we do and so much more. Event decoration, trade show displays, fabric reveal systems…? Yup, that too.

As a worldwide leader in inventing, producing and installing highly innovative, flame-retardant textiles and suspension systems, we gladly spend our days tackling the most creative challenges in set building, stage and stand design.

NOW HERE’S YOUR DREAM JOB

DEVELOPMENT

Now roll up those sleeves, it’s time for some groundwork. By setting up prospection meetings and participating in trade shows or events, you will get to know the market, competitors and trends like no other. The great organizer in you will, however, do proper research and planning first, before attending them, as you know preparation is key.

There's a bigger picture though: as an ambitious business developer, you'll obviously want to increase sales volumes where possible and are always on the lookout for finding new market potential.

However, you’re not in this by yourself. Together with your colleagues, you love developing strategies to approach changes and trends in the industry. We all want to grow our client portfolio after all.

SALES

Commercial drive? check! No doubt your focus is proactive sales because that’s what makes you tick. You love creative problem-solving and finding the best solution for your clients, nursing them with the right samples or marketing material and calculating feasible price estimates. Customer satisfaction is always the goal. And as we’re never too cool to pick each other’s brain around here, you will consult colleagues and other departments along the way.

NOW HERE’S HOW WE SEE YOU

TRAINING AND EXPERTISE

No doubt your communication skills ensure you can speak and write English fluently.

Having 5 years of experience in a similar field, function or industry, you can rely on a widespread network of contacts and have a broad knowledge of the entertainment sector in the New York region. Your proven track record and technical insights make you a valuable partner in the expansion of ShowTex in New York and the East Coast of the United States.

PERSONALITY AND SKILLS

• Great communication, organizational and negotiation skills, driven by a strong commercial insight.
• Quality-oriented problem-solver with technical knowledge, who is resourceful and fast-paced.

WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU?

ShowTex is not just an ordinary company. We never say "impossible" and will always team up to find the best solution possible to just do it. This mindset has kept us at the top of a very competitive industry for over 40 years.

And what about you? You have a front-row seat to this unique story and will join a passionate team that makes ShowTex the industry reference every day.

But there's more: How about flexibility & a healthy work/life balance, having plenty of room for personal growth, training opportunities, travelling and competitive compensation with attractive extras. Sounds good, right?
