Emerge XP

Exhibit & Trade Show Design and Production

Production Technician, AV, Chicago

An established supplier serving the exhibit, event, retail, and branded environment industries is seeking a Production Technician to support assembly, product testing, custom production, and order fulfillment. This is a hands-on position for someone who takes pride in accurate work and enjoys seeing a product move from individual components through final preparation and shipment. The Production Technician will work across several areas of the operation, including assembly, product configuration, quality checks, sample coordination, protective packaging, and warehouse support. The right person will be mechanically inclined, attentive to detail, and comfortable shifting priorities as production needs change. Why This Role This role offers more variety than a traditional assembly or warehouse position. You will work with lighting products, controls, custom components, samples, and oversized fixtures while gaining exposure to the full production and fulfillment process. Your work will have a direct impact on product quality and customer delivery. This team values people who notice the details, handle products carefully, communicate concerns early, and can be counted on to help keep projects moving.

Associate Project Manager, Exhibits, Mid-Atlantic

Emerge XP is supporting an established exhibit, event, and branded environments organization in hiring an Associate Project Manager. This role sits close to the work, supporting projects as they move through kickoff, planning, production, and delivery. This is a strong fit for someone who understands that project execution depends on clean documentation, timely communication, accurate order entry, organized hand offs, and steady follow through across internal teams, vendors, production, finance, and logistics. The Associate Project Manager will support senior project leadership while also taking ownership of defined project tasks and, as workload allows, independently managing smaller scale projects. The work requires someone who can keep information moving, track details without losing sight of deadlines, and help bring structure to the daily movement between planning and production. Why This Role This is a meaningful next step for a project coordinator or emerging project manager who wants more exposure to full cycle project execution within the exhibit and events space. The role offers visibility into scheduling, production documentation, vendor coordination, client sign off, shipping, logistics, purchasing, job costing, and cross functional project flow. It is a hands on coordination role for someone who values accuracy, accountability, and practical problem solving. The strongest candidate will be comfortable managing details, shifting priorities when needed, and helping the team stay aligned from kickoff through shipment.

Production Supervisor, Exhibits, Mid-Atlantic

Emerge XP is supporting an established organization in the exhibit, event, retail, and commercial interiors space in hiring a Production Supervisor. This is an on-site production role for someone who knows how work moves through a shop: what needs to be staged, what needs to be packed, what needs to be tracked, what can slow a job down, and what has to be handled before it becomes a problem. This role is built around presence, follow through, and sound production judgment. The work calls for someone who can stay close to the floor, understand the schedule, communicate clearly across teams, and help keep people, materials, inventory, quality, and deadlines moving in sync. A successful candidate could come from a lead role, production coordination, shop floor planning, hands on supervision, fabrication, warehouse operations, exhibit production, or another environment where timing, organization, and accountability matter every day. Why This Role This is a smart next move for someone ready to take on more ownership without being pulled away from the work itself. You’ll have a visible role in how projects move from kickoff to completion, with exposure to scheduling, labor planning, job costing, inventory, rental components, staging, returns, and cross functional coordination. It is a role for someone who likes solving the practical issues that happen between the plan and the finished job. The value here is in bringing order to moving parts, helping the team work cleaner, and making sure production has what it needs before deadlines start closing in.

This role is built for a project leader who is as comfortable managing timelines, budgets, and vendors as they are navigating client communication and cross functional teamwork. From custom builds to ongoing client programs, the Senior Project Manager brings clarity to moving parts, keeps standards high, and helps ensure every deliverable is aligned, accurate, and ready when it counts. Why This Role This is a strong opportunity for someone who thrives at the center of execution. The work is fast moving, highly collaborative, and deeply connected to the success of each client engagement. You will partner across operations, sales, account management, engineering, shop, vendors, and onsite teams to keep projects advancing with confidence and control. It is also a role with influence. In addition to leading your own portfolio of work, you will serve as a resource to the broader PM team, helping to problem solve obstacles, support strong decision making, and elevate project delivery across the department.
