What are the responsibilities and job description for the Acoustics Sales Manager position at Kvadrat Acoustics?
Our client, Kvadrat Acoustics, seeks a dynamic Sales Manager to grow its high-end clientele in West Coast territory. The candidate we seek should be passionate about aesthetic excellence and top-notch customer service. Founded in Denmark in 1968, Kvadrat is rooted in Scandinavia’s world-famous design tradition, serving a stellar list of clients, including Volkswagen, Luxottica, KPMG, Siemens, the Royal Danish Library, Michelin-star restaurants, and Rolls Royce. Why do good acoustics matter? In the buildings we use, whether for work, living, learning, or healing, the shape of spaces and the nature of materials significantly affect how we perceive sound. Modern architecture is often characterized by glass, concrete, and steel materials that can lead to uncomfortable noise. To meet this challenge, Kvadrat Acoustics collaborates with architects and designers to create aesthetically outstanding spaces with perfect sound control, using the inherent properties of beautiful textiles - from office spaces where people feel undisturbed yet part of something grand to auditoria that leave audiences spellbound.
