General Manager — Production & Operations

Overview

• Most production companies in this market spent the last quarter cutting back.
• We spent it working out how to grow.
• HOX designs, fabricates and installs exhibition stands, event environments, retail displays and fit-outs — in-house, since 2008.
• Our own crew, and a track record that speaks for itself.
• Design through install, under one roof.
• We're hiring a General Manager to run the business day-to-day so it can scale past what one founder can hold.
• What you'll own
• The running of the company — operations, the workshop, scheduling, delivery.
• The numbers — project margins, costs, supplier terms, P&L.
• The team — hiring, accountability, performance, standards.
• Process and visibility — systems that make the work measurable and repeatable.
• Subcontracting as a controlled capacity lever, not a leak.
• What you bring
• Real time in this industry — exhibitions, events, fit-out or retail production — on the build and delivery side.
• A track record running operations or a business, not only projects.
• Command of a P&L and supplier negotiation.
• A network you carry with you.
• The instinct to build order and make good people perform.
• This isn't for you if
• You're a salesperson who wants to sell, not run a floor.
• You've delivered projects but never carried the business behind them.
• You want a title and an office, not accountability for the whole operation.
• You wait to be told the next move instead of setting it.
• Your margin comes from supplier side-deals. We run straight and expect the same.
