Job description

Role Overview

We are seeking a high-energy, results-driven Sales Executive with exceptional time management skills and a relentless focus on fast-track execution.

In this role, you will handle high-volume project inquiries, turn around fast-paced contractor tenders, and coordinate site deliveries under tight deadlines. You will be the commercial engine ensuring contractor purchase orders (POs) are quoted, closed, and fulfilled on schedule without sacrificing gross profit margins.

Key Responsibilities & Scope

1. High-Velocity Sales & Rapid Tender Response

• Fast-Track Quotation: Turn around detailed commercial quotations and project Bills of Quantities (BOQs) within strict 24-to-48-hour response windows to win competitive contractor tenders.

• Contractor Closing: Engage directly with main contractors, joinery sub-contractors, and quantity surveyors (QS) to rapidly convert inquiries into confirmed, paid purchase orders.

• Schedule Alignment: Interrogate client project timelines early, matching required delivery dates against Pasir Panjang warehouse stock levels and incoming factory container arrivals.

2. Rigorous Time & Pipeline Management

• Prioritized Task Execution: Manage a high-volume daily pipeline, ruthlessly prioritizing active, short-deadline tenders over cold leads to maximize weekly closed volume.

• Cross-Departmental Synchronization: Coordinate seamlessly with in-house QS, 3D CAD design, and logistics teams to ensure panel nesting, cut-lists, and warehouse dispatches meet rigid site delivery slots.

• Strict Milestone Tracking: Monitor active project milestones daily - from sample sign-offs and deposit collections to site delivery and final payment claims.

3. Account Maintenance & On-Site Execution

• Maintain daily touchpoints with site supervisors and main contractor project managers to manage variation orders (VOs) and immediate material top-ups.

• Enforce strict Cash-On-Delivery (COD) or approved credit payment terms, ensuring rapid payment collection prior to site delivery.

Requirements & Qualifications

• Experience: Minimum 1-3 years of hands-on sales, estimation, or project execution experience in commercial building materials, interior fit-outs, carpentry/joinery, or architectural finishes.

• Time Management Focus: Proven ability to manage multi-project deadlines simultaneously under intense schedule pressure without operational errors.

• Technical Aptitude: Ability to quickly interpret architectural plans, elevation details, and BOQ schedules.

• Communication & Drive: Excellent negotiation skills, high responsiveness, and strong command of English (written and verbal).

• Education: Diploma or Degree in Business, Marketing, Construction Management, Interior Design, or a related field.
