Sales & Project Manager (Montreal office)

Sales & Project Manager (Montreal office)

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 and New York, we are excited to welcome you to be part of our Canadian Team. We are also thrilled to announce that have opened an office in Las Vegas as part of our continued growth.

Welcome to ShowTex!

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. You can find ShowTex offices in Europe, the Middle East, North America, South Africa, Asia and Australia , but your home base is located in Toronto, Canada.

NOW HERE'S YOUR DREAM JOB

DEVELOPMENT

Now roll up those sleeves, it’s time for some ground work. 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 .

And again, 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 calculate 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.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT

You love the thrill of managing a challenging project from A to Z . On-site meetings, surveys and measurements as well as briefing your colleagues of production, transport and installation. You know the drill. Obviously, you are available from start to finish, even during the event if needed, and all along the way you never forget to communicate with your clients. Even after the sale, because they will be so keen to tell you all of their feedback! And you would never miss a chance to optimize your and our way of working.

CURIOUS HOW WE SEE YOU?

TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE

You bring 3–5 years of hands-on experience managing projects from start to finish—ideally in event textiles, event production, audiovisual productions or entertainment —and you're open to relocating or working internationally.

PERSONALITY AND SKILLS

Thanks to your technical insight , you see solutions instead of problem s and with that hands-on mentality you can respond flexibly to unforeseen circumstances every day , independently and in a team. You are punctual, eager to learn and think along wherever you can. Your eye for detail ensures that you can work in an orderly and structured way, while always following safety and quality procedures .

• Collaboration Skills : Proven experience working with cross-functional teams, particularly sales, operations, and technical teams, to align project goals and deliverables.
• Client-Focused : Experience in client-facing roles, with strong communication skills to manage customer expectations and ensure project satisfaction.
• Problem-Solving : Background in identifying and resolving project issues to keep projects on track and within budget.
• Technical Skills : Proficiency in project documentation to manage schedules, resources, and documentation efficiently.

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 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 can help to shape this unique story by becoming part of a motivated and growing team at the center of the action.

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

The cherry on the pie? Without a doubt the creative industry we’re in and the amazing group of people you’ll soon call your colleagues.

CONVINCED YOU’RE THE RIGHT GUY / GAL FOR THE JOB? LET’S TALK!
