Imagine working for an international company fuelled by creativity. A company that turns bold ideas into reality with flame-retardant textiles and innovative suspension systems. From iconic theatre curtains and impressive stage designs to striking exhibition stands, immersive museums, theme parks and unforgettable events. Welcome to ShowTex.
With locations across Europe, North America, Africa, Asia, Australia and the Middle East, we work on creative projects around the world. As we continue to grow internationally, we’re looking for an ambitious International Sales & Project Manager ready to cross borders and grow with us.
YOUR MISSION?
You’ll start your ShowTex journey in Belgium with an intensive 18- to 24-month training programme. During this time, you’ll get to know our products, applications, customers and internal processes inside out, developing into a true product specialist along the way.
You’ll work closely with colleagues in sales, production, logistics and technical teams, while gaining a solid understanding of how we manage projects across different markets and cultures.
Once your training is complete, you’ll be ready for the next step: taking on a commercial role within one of our international markets. Depending on your strengths, interests and the opportunities available at ShowTex, you could continue your career from Belgium or move to one of our international locations.
WHAT WILL YOU DO?
This is a role with plenty of variety, combining business development, sales and project management.
- Seek out new customers and build lasting relationships with theatres, event companies, museums, theme parks, architects, designers and other professionals in the entertainment and events industry.
- Keep track of market trends and identify new commercial opportunities, turning them into concrete projects and partnerships.
- Manage projects from the initial enquiry and quotation right through to delivery, bringing customers, production, logistics, installation and engineering together along the way.
- Visit project sites, take measurements, attend project meetings and, when needed, be there during installations and events.
- Advise customers on creative solutions that are not only inspiring, but technically achievable too, while keeping a close eye on quotations, orders and projects.
- Represent ShowTex at trade fairs, networking events and other commercial activities.
- Help grow our presence in both existing and new markets and play an active role in our international commercial growth.
- Keep customer and project information up to date in our CRM and ERP systems and contribute to clear forecasting and reporting.
WHO ARE YOU?
- You’re someone who enjoys meeting people, building relationships and making things happen.
- You’re commercially minded, spot opportunities and know how to turn them into results.
- You’re entrepreneurial, proactive and results-driven, and you’re not afraid to take ownership.
- You work independently, think in solutions and can keep several projects moving at the same time.
- You’re ambitious and eager to develop yourself in an international environment. Sales experience is a plus, but not essential.
- You communicate confidently and professionally in Dutch and English. French is a strong asset, and other languages are always welcome.
- You enjoy working with others and feel comfortable in an international, multicultural environment.
- You have an affinity with theatre, events or entertainment. Even better: you’re genuinely curious about the world behind the scenes.
WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT FROM US?
At ShowTex, you’re not just taking on a new job. You’re getting the opportunity to build an international commercial career.
During your training in Belgium, experienced colleagues will guide you as you get to know our products, markets and organisation from the inside. You’ll have the freedom to grow, take on responsibility and build a strong network across our international organisation.
After your training, you’ll take the next step towards a commercial role within ShowTex, either from Belgium or from one of our locations around the world. Along the way, you’ll work on exciting projects in theatre, live events, entertainment, museums, theme parks and other creative environments.
And of course, there’s a competitive salary package, attractive additional benefits and plenty of opportunities to keep developing within a growing international company.
