Are you a confident communicator who loves solving problems, influencing project decisions, and working closely with customers? We’re looking for a Project Specification Manager to take ownership of a busy region and champion integrated building material system solutions across refurbishment projects.


In this role, you’ll combine technical understanding with relationship-building to ensure our client’s systems are correctly specified, supported, and delivered - helping customers achieve the best possible outcomes for their projects.


What You'll Be Doing

As a specification-focused specialist, you’ll be at the heart of refurbishment projects from concept to installation.


Territory includes EX, TA, BA, BS, SP, SO, RG, SN, GL and OX postcodes.


Key Responsibilities:

* Customer Engagement: Carry out regular customer visits to build strong relationships, understand project challenges, and identify new opportunities.
* Winning Specifications: Promote and secure full system solutions within project specifications, influencing architects, specifiers, contractors, and project teams.
* Technical & Guarantee Support: Provide clear guidance on system requirements and guarantees, including site visits to ensure correct understanding and implementation.
* Forecasting & Planning: Prepare accurate sales forecasts and support demand planning to ensure smooth supply into your region’s projects.
* Business Development: Proactively identify, develop, and convert new opportunities to grow revenue and expand market presence.
* Strategic Alignment: Ensure your pipeline, projects, and activities support wider business goals and product portfolio strategies.
* CRM Excellence: Maintain detailed and accurate CRM records, managing your pipeline and customer activity with discipline and attention to detail.

You’ll thrive in this role if you enjoy combining technical knowledge with customer interaction and project influence.


Essential Skills & Experience:

* Experience in technical sales, specification sales, or construction-related business development
* Strong understanding of building materials and full system solutions
* Ability to read, interpret, and influence project specifications
* Comfortable meeting customers, visiting sites, and handling technical discussions (full UK driving licence is essential)
* Excellent communication and presentation skills
* Strong organisational skills - able to manage a high volume of customer interactions
* CRM experience (SAP C4C ideal, but any CRM acceptable)
* Proactive, target-driven, and motivated by building long-term relationships


Why This Role Matters

You’ll be the key link between customers, technical requirements, and project success. Your expertise will help shape refurbishment projects, drive value for customers, and support business growth - all while giving you autonomy, variety, and the chance to build a meaningful network in the industry.


Ready to Take the Next Step?

If you’re excited by technical solutions, enjoy influencing projects, and want a role where every day brings new conversations and challenges, we’d love to hear from you.
