Job description

Overview

We’re a cross-cultural team of doers, dreamers, and problem-solvers. With roots in thirteen nations and ten languages, our diversity fuels bold ideas and creative thinking.

Agile and open by design, we challenge the status quo, improve what’s outdated, and constantly reinvent together.

We take a hands-on approach, push past conventions, and support each other every step of the way. There’s no “I” in team and we like it that way.

Based in Paris, Effretikon, Basel, Hong Kong, and Miami, we operate as one.

We act as general contractors for national and international fairs delivering complex projects across production, operations, and logistics with precision and impact.

We don’t just manage challenges, We thrive in them.
