About FHI

FHI represents the interests of more than 650 affiliated companies. Our focus is on collective marketing, individual services and advocacy.

What are you going to do?

As Team Leader Trade Shows & Events, you play a key role in organizing our activities. You support the Trade Shows & Events Manager, coach project managers, and are personally responsible for the practical organization of trade show projects and larger events. You monitor the progress of activities, maintain an overview of planning and budget, and ensure that everything runs smoothly.

You work closely with colleagues from various teams and maintain contact with exhibitors, suppliers, and other partners. In doing so, you actively contribute ideas regarding the further development of our activities. At the same time, you are a hands-on professional and a real doer: you not only organize but also actively participate in the execution of the activities.

Your responsibilities include:

  • You coach and support project managers in organizing trade fairs, events, and meetings.
  • You organize trade fair projects and larger events in the broadest sense of the word yourself.
  • You monitor the planning, budget, and quality of activities.
  • You coordinate with internal teams, exhibitors, and suppliers.
  • You coordinate the practical organization and communication surrounding events.
  • You contribute ideas for the renewal and improvement of our events and formats.
  • As a hands-on project manager, you roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty in the preparation and execution of activities.
