Area Sales Manager – Roofing Building Products

 

Scotland £30k - £35k + Bonus + Car + Excellent Package

 

 

Our Business

We are an award winning, specialist manufacturer of Building products with clients across the UK.

We are known and respected throughout the roofing construction industry, and we are the preferred choice for many contractors local authorities. Our range covers mainly Pitched Roofing, Flat Roofing, Roofline, Rooflights, Ventilation and Waterproofing products.

We are a well established business, with a successful and long trading history that is proud to be in a very stable financial position.

 

 

The Role

We want to expand our team with the addition of an area sales manager to cover Scotland. Historically Scotland has always been a profitable area for our business, and we need someone that can nurture and manage current accounts, and of course continue focused new business across the country.

Our customers range from all the Councils and Local Authorities, Housing Associations, Builders Merchants, Architects Specifiers and some manufacturers. All of these will form part of your client list.

You will be responsible for managing all sales within Scotland; this includes proactively seeking new business through the contractors specifiers, and account managing existing business.

This position comes with very achievable turnover targets, working for a company whaee quite often the brand names sells itself to customers – rarely will you be cold calling prospects with no knowledge of our product range and business.  

 

 

The Sales Person

First and foremost you will need to be a proven sales person within the construction and building product industry. We require someone who is not just price driven, but is technically minded and able to sell the products our customers require – Some of our products are not the cheapest available, but they are the best.

There will be first class back up and support from head office, but essentially you will need to be a focused and autonomous field sale professional who has direct experience in our sector.

Experience of selling to our client base will of course be a huge benefit for this role, but of equal importance will be your knowledge and experience with some of the following products:

Flat Roofing, Pitched Roofing, Rooflights, Insulation, Ventilation, Solar Shading and knowledge of Green / Eco Friendly building products would be advantageous.

Although Scotland has a healthy exiting client base you will need to be target KPI driven to succeed in this role.

You also have had a contracting background which would be of interest, if accompanied by a proven sales track record in our industry.

 

Time Frame Location

This role is to cover Scotland. Ideally you will be based around Glasgow or the central belt of Scotland. We may consider someone outside of this but the central belt would be preferred.

This role has full sign off and budget, and we genuinely can cater for someone to start almost straight away. Allowing for interview realistically this could be as early as Mid - Late April.
