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
  • Energy & utilities
  • 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.
