About the Opportunity

A rare opportunity has arisen for a commercially astute and relationship-led sales professional to join a specialist contractor working on complex, high-value construction projects across London and the South East.

This role is not transactional. It requires a strategic, consultative approach to manage multi-stakeholder relationships and long sales cycles (often 12 to 36 months). You will be responsible for progressing qualified project opportunities from mid-pipeline stages through to bid, negotiation, and contract award. You'll work closely with cross-functional teams across pre-construction, operations, and business development.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives on high-level client engagement, has a deep understanding of construction sales cycles, and wants to play a key role in securing landmark commercial projects.

Key Responsibilities

* Progress project opportunities passed from Business Development through to contract win

* Build and nurture long-term relationships with key stakeholders including architects, contractors, developers, and end clients

* Develop and lead tailored project sales strategies that align with business and client priorities

* Support tender strategy development and contribute during mid-bid meetings and post-tender interviews

* Partner with pre-construction, finance, and delivery teams to ensure smooth internal handover

* Lead negotiations and manage client alignment during the final stages of the sales process

* Maintain regular contact with stakeholders through face-to-face meetings and calls
