Job description

Regional Sales Manager – North (Engineered Solutions / Construction)

Let’s not dress this up.

This is a high-stakes, technical sales role in a market where credibility matters, deals are complex, and the sales cycle isn’t short.

If you’re used to quick wins and transactional sales — this isn’t for you.

If you know how to win specifications, influence stakeholders, and close high‑value engineered solutions, keep reading.

The Opportunity

You’ll own the Northern region, selling bespoke, high‑performance engineered door systems into sectors where failure isn’t an option — including:

• Critical infrastructure
• Defence & high‑security environments
• Industrial and complex construction projects

This is about getting in early, shaping projects, and locking in specifications before your competitors even know the job exists.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Driving new business across contractors, consultants, and end users
• Winning specification‑led sales on complex construction and infrastructure projects
• Building relationships with engineers, architects, and project stakeholders
• Managing long sales cycles and navigating multi‑layered decision‑making
• Owning your territory like a business — pipeline, forecasting, and delivery
• Positioning high‑value, technically engineered solutions — not commodities

What Winning Looks Like

• You’re specified on projects before tender stage
• You’re influencing decision‑makers, not chasing them
• You consistently convert complex opportunities into high‑margin orders
• Your region shows measurable, year‑on‑year growth

What We’re Looking For

• Proven success in technical, specification‑led sales
• Background in construction, engineering, or industrial sectors
• Experience selling high‑value, bespoke solutions (not off‑the‑shelf products)
• Comfortable dealing with consultants, contractors, and project teams
• Someone who can open doors, create demand, and close business

What This Isn’t

• It’s not order‑taking
• It’s not short‑cycle sales
• It’s not for someone who waits for leads

What You’ll Get

• A technically respected product with a strong market reputation
• The ability to win high‑value, defensible projects
• Autonomy to run your region properly
• Earnings aligned to performance and growth

If you know how to get specified, build influence, and win complex deals — this is where you prove it.
