Vacature Account Manager

You Make the Difference

Spotting opportunities is great, but seizing them… that’s where you make a difference. As an Account Manager at HEKO, you’re the one who doesn’t wait around—you take the initiative. You actively seek connections, whether you’re walking the trade show floor to build new relationships or enthusiastically presenting a booth design . You’re the familiar face of our company, know exactly what potential clients need, and have an uncanny knack for identifying where you can add value. And even more importantly: you deliver on that promise .

With calmness, persuasiveness, and a willingness to listen, you strike exactly the right chord.

What You'll Be Doing

You cover a lot of ground, strike up conversations, and spot opportunities that others simply miss. A deal is a deal, quality comes before quantity, and your reliability makes you a valued partner to customers, suppliers, and colleagues alike.

You’ll have the initial meeting with the client, work with your colleagues at the office to determine the right direction, and then present a conceptual proposal in the form of a design. After final approval, you remain involved as the project manager—from the proposal through to the delivery of the booth at the trade show. So you’re not just a salesperson, but also the director of the entire process.

In a world where trade shows are becoming increasingly complex and challenging (from custom-built booths to comprehensive visual concepts and sustainable solutions), you effortlessly switch between styles, ambitions, and paces. You attend both national and international trade shows, maintain a strong network, and stay on top of trends and developments.

A builder, a go-getter, a persuader. And therefore a valuable colleague at HEKO.

Who You Are

In addition, you have strong organizational skills and enjoy working on a project basis, which allows you to maintain an overview, bring structure to tasks, and achieve results.

What makes working at HEKO so special to me is that you’re not just a number here. Everyone knows each other, helps each other, and shares the same goal: to create something beautiful that we can be proud of. Whether you’ve been with the company for twenty years or are just starting out, you’re welcomed into the team right away. And if things don’t go as planned, there’s always someone there to help you figure it out. That family feeling—that’s what HEKO is all about.
