National Specification Manager
National Specification Manager – Housebuilder Sector
This is a brand-new role created due to sustained growth within a dynamic, forward-thinking group of companies. We are seeking an experienced and driven National Specification Manager to take ownership of the housebuilder specification channel at a critical point of growth.
This is a key position in the business — an opportunity to build and develop a pipeline of specification-led projects with major national and regional housebuilders. With huge shifts happening in the heating and building sector (including the phase-out of gas boilers by 2025), this is an exciting time to be part of a business offering sustainable, future-proof solutions to the market.
You’ll be responsible for developing strong relationships with housebuilders, influencing at all levels, generating specifications, and managing a pipeline of projects from initial concept through to handover. This role requires someone with experience in specification sales, ideally within the construction, heating, plumbing, or interiors sector.
The Role:
- Develop and grow a housebuilder specification sales channel nationwide.
- Build strong relationships with key decision-makers at national and regional housebuilders.
- Generate specifications and manage the pipeline from lead generation through to handover to internal teams.
- Work closely with internal departments to ensure a collaborative approach.
- Deliver a first-class customer experience while achieving agreed KPIs and targets.
- Provide market feedback and insight to the leadership team.
- Be a brand ambassador and play an integral role in the business’s continued growth.
Experience Required:
- 5+ years in specification sales, ideally within construction, plumbing, heating, or related industries.
- Proven track record of securing specifications and managing key accounts.
- Commercially astute with strong negotiation skills.
- Excellent communication and organisational skills.
- A proactive, driven individual with a consultative approach.
- Full UK driving licence – this is a national role requiring regular travel.
