Specification Area Sales Manager, External Wall Insulation

Remote | North East, East Midlands & Parts of East Anglia

£50,000 to £55,000 Basic + Bonus (£90K+ OTE) + Company Car or Car Allowance + Excellent Benefits

Are you an experienced specification sales professional looking to inherit an established territory rather than build one from scratch?

We’re recruiting on behalf of a highly respected manufacturer within the building envelope sector, looking to appoint a Specification Area Sales Manager to cover the North East, East Midlands and parts of East Anglia.

This is a rare opportunity to take over a well established region with longstanding customer relationships, an active pipeline of projects and genuine long term career prospects. The position has become available due to retirement, making it an ideal opportunity for someone looking to build on an already successful territory while continuing to drive new business growth.

The Role

This is a remote, field based role where you’ll be responsible for securing product specifications across refurbishment, retrofit, façade remediation and new build projects.

You’ll work closely with architects, contractors, consultants, housing associations, local authorities and specialist installers, developing opportunities from initial specification through to project completion.

Your responsibilities will include:

• Growing and developing an established specification sales territory.

• Winning new business and securing product specifications.

• Managing key customer relationships across the region.

• Delivering technical presentations and CPDs.

• Supporting customers throughout the project lifecycle.

• Working closely with internal technical and commercial teams.

• Building relationships with contractors, architects, consultants and installers.

• Developing opportunities across retrofit, decarbonisation, social housing and new build sectors.

About You

We’re looking for someone who has:

• At least three years’ specification sales experience within the construction industry.

• A proven background in field sales and business development.

• Experience working with architects, contractors, consultants or specifiers.

• Strong commercial awareness and the ability to develop long term customer relationships.

• The confidence to manage a large geographical territory independently.

Experience within any of the following product sectors would be particularly relevant:

• External Wall Insulation (EWI)

• Render Systems

• Façade Systems

• Cladding

• Building Envelope Products

• Insulation

• Passive Fire Protection

• Roofing Systems

• Waterproofing Systems

• Construction Chemicals

Candidates from closely related technical construction product sectors with strong specification sales experience are also encouraged to apply.

What’s on Offer?

• £50,000 to £55,000 basic salary (Negotiable DOE)

• Bonus scheme with realistic £90K+ OTE.

• Company car or car allowance.

• Pension and comprehensive benefits package.

• Remote, field based role with genuine autonomy.

• Inherit an established territory with longstanding customer relationships and active projects.

• Opportunity to join a successful and growing manufacturer with an excellent reputation within the construction industry.

• Long term career opportunity created through retirement rather than staff turnover.

Why This Opportunity?

Opportunities like this don’t come around often. Rather than inheriting a struggling patch, you’ll take over a mature and well developed territory that has been successfully managed for many years.

You’ll have the freedom to manage your own diary, the support of an experienced technical team, and the opportunity to work on some of the UK’s most important retrofit, façade remediation and new build projects.

If you’re looking for a role where you can make a genuine impact while joining a stable, well respected business with excellent staff retention, this could be the ideal next step in your career.
