Are you our Mechanical Product Specialist

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, expanding to Toronto and Las Vegas, we are excited to welcome you to be part of our Canadian Team.

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


NOW HERE'S YOUR DREAM JOB

At ShowTex, you’ll receive extensive training and guidance from our in-house specialists, and we’ll turn you into a true ShowTex product expert.

AND YOU? ARE YOU OUR MECHANICAL PRODUCT SPECIALIST?

Ever heard of ShowTex's unique HiSpeed Reveal or HiSpeed Roll-Up products? Or perhaps the Kabuki 50 and Kabuki 30 systems, perfect for dramatic stage reveals? We also offer a range of innovative track systems designed for seamless movement and precision.

As the Mechanical Product Specialist within our production and installation team, you will guarantee timely, accurate, safe, and efficient preparation, service, assembly, and placement of these products. Both in-house and on-site at locations across Canada, you will ensure flawless execution for our clients.

Your main tasks? Working in the technical workshop, preparing these products for installations, and conducting the actual on-site installations.

But there’s more: as a Mechanical Product Specialist for the production and installation team, you adhere to strict safety and quality procedures like no other. You work with great attention to detail, ensuring accuracy even when deadlines are tight.

As the Mechanical Product Specialist, you are also the technical support for any project-driven requests that come through the Sales & Projects team. No two days are the same! You maintain open communication with all stakeholders, as you are the voice of the Mechanical Products inventory.

You also understand how important technical documentation is to help customers grasp the sometimes complex nature of ShowTex products. You provide or oversee the production of technical drawings and renders for Projects and Installations, ensuring everything is clear and precise.


CURIOUS HOW WE SEE YOU?

TRAINING AND EXPERIENCE

As a trained mechanical specialist or engineer, either by education or experience, you understand how these products work and how to maintain them. You can perform repairs and are skilled at reading (and creating) technical drawings. You also know that deadlines can be tight, but good organization goes a long way in ensuring success.

No doubt your communication skills allow you to speak and write English fluently, ensuring smooth collaboration with both clients and colleagues.

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.
  • Always maintains an optimistic and hands-on mentality, even in stressful situations.
  • Able to autonomously organize and coordinate a project, meeting the deadline set
  • Good budget control skills and capable of accurate administrative work
  • Driven, eager to learn and ready to pass on knowledge

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.
