TRADE SHOW SALES REPRESENTATIVE Bridge Showroom,
Coterie, New York, September 9-11 | Javits Center | 9 am–6 pm
Coterie is the biggest fashion trade show in the US, and you'd be on the floor, closing.
Bridge Showroom represents high-end European womenswear designers across the US market. Twice a year, we bring our collections to Coterie, the show where boutique owners and buyers from across the country come to build their next season. This isn't a support role. You'll be presenting collections, guiding buyers through decisions, and writing up real orders.
We're one of the bigger players at Coterie, and this role sits right in the middle of that energy: fast-paced, high-stakes, and genuinely fun if you love fashion and people.
What You'll Do:
- Present our European designer collections to boutique owners and buyers, one-on-one
- Guide buyers through their decisions, understanding their store, their customer, and what will actually sell
- Write up orders directly with clients on the floor
- Bring energy and charisma to every interaction, all day, every day of the show
- Work as part of a tight, upbeat team representing multiple designer labels at once
We're Looking For Someone Who:
- Has real sales or customer-facing experience; this is a step above entry-level, and we need someone who can own a conversation with a buyer, not just assist one
- Genuinely loves fashion and can speak to it with confidence and enthusiasm
- Is proactive; you see an opening with a buyer, and you take it, without waiting to be told
- Has natural charisma and can build rapport fast, even with someone you've just met
- Can stay sharp, warm, and high-energy through long, intense show days
- Is comfortable with the pace: back-to-back conversations, no downtime, constant movement
Training & Support:
You'll get 2–4 hours of training (online or in-person) before the show, plus ongoing support from our team throughout the event. You won't be thrown in cold, but you will be expected to bring confidence and instinct once you're on the floor.
Compensation & Perks:
- Hourly pay
- Staff discount at our SESTRA boutique in Short Hills, valid through the rest of August
- Standout performers may be invited into ongoing engagement with SESTRA
- Direct access to the energy, connections, and pace of New York Fashion Week, the kind of experience that opens doors in this industry
Schedule: September 9-11, 9 am–6 pm, plus a training session before the event
