About the Role
As a Technical Consultant within our Specification Support team, you will play a key role in advising and supporting customers on the technical specification of walls, ceilings and linings, with a strong emphasis on fire safety, acoustic performance, and structural integrity.

* Work across a wide range of projects—from small renovations to major commercial buildings.
* Maintain up-to-date knowledge of relevant products, certification standards, and market regulations.
* Build strong relationships with clients, ensuring technical accuracy and commercial awareness.
What We're Looking For
* Background in a technical or engineering discipline, such as fire safety, acoustics, or structural engineering.
* Experience in technical specification, project management, or customer-facing roles in the construction industry.
* Ideally worked with or for dry lining, plastering, door manufacturers, or subcontractors.
* Strong written and verbal communication skills—able to translate complex technical issues into practical solutions.
* Familiarity with certification processes, testing bodies, and product standards.
* Previous experience in or understanding of specification sales is highly desirable.
Why Join Us?
* Be part of a highly skilled, collaborative team focused on delivering best-in-class technical solutions.
* Access to structured training and career progression pathways
* Opportunity to work across high-impact projects in a growing technical area of construction.
