Peikko Group, founded in 1965, is a family-owned global leader in Slim Floor Structures and Connection Technology, making construction faster, safer, and more sustainable. With over 2,000 employees and operations in 30+ countries, we're known for innovation like DELTABEAM. Peikko UK, based in Co. Durham, brings this expertise locally, partnering with the industry to drive efficiency and sustainability. Our Nordic values emphasize customer focus, respect, continuous improvement, and profitable growth.

The Opportunity: Drive Expansion in the UK

Join us during a strategic expansion in the UK. We're adapting with a new structure and investing heavily in the future, despite recent market turbulence. This is your chance to make a significant impact, building our presence and capitalizing on the demand for innovative construction solutions in the UK.

Your Role: Technical Sales Champion

Drive specification and sales of Peikko's industry-leading product portfolio, with a primary focus on our comprehensive range of Connection Technology for precast and cast-in-situ construction, while also providing support for our flagship DELTABEAM Slim Floor Structures. Advise designers, engineers, and contractors, demonstrating how Peikko adds value – faster, safer, more sustainable builds.

Key Responsibilities:

• Secure Specifications: Engage early with designers/engineers to get Peikko products specified, focusing primarily on Connection Technology solutions while also supporting DELTABEAM projects. Provide expert technical support across the relevant product ranges.
• Build Relationships: Nurture long-term connections with key industry players.
• Market Development (UK): Identify and pursue new business within the UK.
• Manage Sales Cycle: Oversee the process from lead to close, meeting targets.
• Collaborate & Report: Work with internal teams and maintain CRM records.

Who We're Looking For:

• Proven technical/specification sales success in UK construction (structural products ideal). Significant relevant industry experience combined with a strong technical aptitude is key. A solid understanding of structural engineering principles (concrete/steel) is crucial.
• Excellent communication, presentation, and relationship-building skills.
• Strong commercial acumen and negotiation skills.
• Full UK Driving License.

Beneficial/Desirable:

• A degree in Civil or Structural Engineering, or an equivalent technical qualification. While not essential, it is highly beneficial.
• Experience using CRM software (e.g., Salesforce).
• Knowledge of the construction market and practices in the Republic of Ireland.
• Familiarity with the precast concrete sector and its key players.
• Dynamic Attributes: Proactive, self-starting, results-oriented, adaptable, resourceful, collaborative, and aligned with our values.

What Peikko Offers:

• Competitive salary, company car/allowance, pension, and private health insurance.
• Work with innovative, sustainable, market-leading solutions.
• Supportive, non-bureaucratic culture based on Nordic values (respect, trust, collaboration).

Location & Travel:

• Home-based (UK) with significant travel across the UK.
