We are recruiting for a major supplier of professional stage equipment covering the German and Central European territory. Think stadium-filling lighting, lasers, high-end audio, speakers and special effects. They already supply some of the world’s biggest bands, production firms and artists, and are looking for a German speaking Relationship Manager to expand their reach and European market share. This is a high-profile role selling into Tour Managers, Production Managers, and Creative Directors for West End shows, Arena tours, Stadium Shows, Conferences, and major Festivals. The role covers Germany and Central European countries, and the role requires you to speak fluent English and German. You can be based in either the UK or Germany to apply for this role. The Role of German-speaking Relationship Manager, Event Rental Equipment

This is not a "hard sell" role. The company prides itself on a "slow burn" approach. They know that long-term, profitable business comes from genuine trust. Your target in the first year is low. As long as you are securing 4 face-to-face meetings a week with the right decision-makers, there is no pressure to close immediate deals. You are planting seeds for a lucrative Year Two and beyond. You will be renting the equipment together with the specialist labour required to manage logistics, installation, and breakdown across different countries for worldwide tours. The role involves extensive networking and corporate hospitality. You must be comfortable effectively managing your own schedule from home, covering the whole of the UK with frequent overnight stays and occasional European travel.
