Specification sales recruitment
Specification sales deserves particular attention.
The successful salesperson may need relationships across architects, consultants, contractors, developers, distributors and end users.
They must understand how to influence a project before the purchase is made.
That makes finding the right candidate much more difficult through traditional recruitment advertising.
We identify people already selling into the customers and decision-makers relevant to your business.

From building products to infrastructure technology
The built environment is changing.
Traditional construction products now sit alongside technology, sustainability, EV infrastructure and data-led solutions.
The salespeople required to sell them need both commercial ability and enough market understanding to establish credibility.
Our search strategy reflects that.
We identify candidates from your direct competitors and from adjacent sectors where their customers, relationships and selling experience transfer.
Headhunting instead of waiting
The person you want is unlikely to be searching job boards.
They may already be managing the exact contractor, consultant, distributor or customer relationship you want to develop.
We find them.
