Location:         Montreal, QC
 
Do you aspire to set your mark on a strong fashion brand internationally? Are you a dedicated sales professional with a proven track record of results? Do you feel excited by the opportunity to spend more time with customers than at your desk? Then here’s a chance to work with key accounts within corporate fashion and promotional clothing.
 
As our new Produkt & Blanks Sales Responsible – this is where you come into the picture.
 

YOUR ROLE

We are looking to grow our team internationally with experienced sales profiles with expert knowledge within this field to take on full responsibility for this area of our business. PRODUKT is a business model in JACK & JONES. We are a volume driven department, who use the sheer power of BESTSELLER, providing our key account customers with proven winner products and true value for money at competitive prices. We’re not a traditional collection-driven brand; we work in parallel fields within the textile industry and explore opportunities in other segments. We offer corporate wear, merchandise and blanks - in addition to operating under the sub-brand PRODUKT, delivering SMUs that drive high volume within the FMCG sector. That’s why we consider ourselves craftsmen rather than fashion people. 
 
As Sales Responsible, you will hold a prominent position in achieving our ambitious goals. You take on full responsibility for your customers on Corporate Wear & Blanks within PRODUKT’s business. Drawing on your solid experience and deep insights into your field, you kick in doors to new customers as well as contributing with an extensive dealer network.

You bring new experience and ideas to the table – pushing limits, challenging and developing our strategy.
