We are seeking a versatile Account Lead & Project Manager to join a premier custom manufacturing firm in the Halton region. This is not a traditional "hunting" sales role; instead, you will act as the central nervous system for complex, large-scale custom projects. You will inherit a portfolio of established, high-profile institutional clients, managing the entire lifecycle from initial tender and design consultation through to manufacturing and final installation. This role requires a blend of strategic relationship management and rigorous technical project coordination.
Advantages- Unrivaled Mentorship: Work directly under a long-tenured industry leader known for investing in and growing their team.
- High-Profile Portfolio: Manage multi-year contracts for some of Canada's most recognizable brands and institutions.
- Stability & Growth: Join a growing organization that prioritizes internal advancement and long-term retention.
- Comprehensive Benefits: Includes dental, extended health, life insurance, and on-site parking.
Responsibilities- Serve as the primary point of contact for key accounts, ensuring client expectations are met throughout long-term project cycles (3–12 months).
- Coordinate between internal design, production, and installation teams to ensure custom manufactured products are delivered on spec and on time.
- Critically evaluate project costing, prepare pricing, and present formal quotations/bids.
- Conduct on-site visits (approx. 25% travel) to assess installation requirements and meet with stakeholders.
- Manage project schedules and trackers, providing regular updates to internal and external stakeholders.
Qualifications- Experience: 5+ years of Account Management experience within a tangible "build" environment (Construction, Custom Manufacturing, or Industrial Services).
- Skillset: Proven ability to manage multiple complex projects with various phases and stakeholders simultaneously.
- Mindset: A "humble and confident" professional who is eager to learn a niche industry and build long-term relationships.
- Logistics: Must possess a valid Driver’s License for site visits and be able to work on-site daily in Burlington.
- Education: Post-secondary education is preferred.
SummaryThis is a permanent, full-time career opportunity for a project-minded professional to manage high-value accounts within a specialized manufacturing sector. You will be supported by an expert team and a dedicated mentor while overseeing the delivery of custom, large-scale visual assets.
