Schmidt is Europe's leading kitchen and interior solutions brand with 700 showrooms globally—but we're proud to still be family-owned and run, with our founder Hubert Schmidt's grandchildren now leading the company. With no shareholders to answer to, our people are our priority—our customers, dealers, and employees. That outlook comes through in everything we do.
Being a Schmidt showroom administrator is a rich and rewarding role – and a broad one. You'll oversee the administration side of the customer journey and all the tasks and actions that lead to a successful customer project delivery to make your showroom a success story.
Support: You'll support the designers during the customer sales journey as a sounding board and point of reference on queries related to supplier lead times, delivery planning, and installation team coordination to deliver the customer projects within their schedule.
Project Management: You'll act as an internal and external point of contact for all project administration elements for every customer project, liaising with the relevant suppliers, logistics, and installation partners to name a few.
Operations: You'll set up internal systems and processes, oversee compliance with organizational procedures and ensure the profitability of the showroom. You'll ensure your showroom constantly meets the high Schmidt standards – and is a proud representative of our trusted brand.
Our showroom administrators are valued members of every Schmidt showroom and one of the reasons why the showroom feels like Schmidt, with a strong family spirit and values. You're the reason for our customers' success; your team's success; our success.
