• Demonstrated experience spanning 8-10 years in sales roles focused on commercial buildings—ideally involving building systems such as CCTV or alarm systems as well as broader electrical solutions.
• Proven track record of at least five years managing teams within complex organisational structures where nurturing talent has been central to achieving results.

• Exceptional interpersonal skills enabling you to build rapport quickly with clients from diverse backgrounds while maintaining long-standing professional relationships built on trust.
• Strong organisational abilities allowing you to juggle multiple priorities simultaneously without compromising attention to detail or quality standards.
• Excellent verbal and written communication skills—essential for preparing compelling proposals as well as delivering presentations at industry events or internal meetings.

• Commitment to upholding ethical standards in all dealings with clients or partners—ensuring transparency throughout every stage of engagement.
• Adaptability when responding to changing market conditions or evolving client needs—embracing new challenges as opportunities for learning rather than obstacles.
