This is a key technical-commercial role focused on driving sales growth across the Scottish timber frame market. You'll be responsible for identifying and converting new business opportunities, while also deepening relationships with existing customers across housing developers, contractors, architects, and housing associations.

You'll play a central role in shaping and delivering tailored timber frame solutions that meet customer needs, align with regulatory standards, and support sustainable construction outcomes.

Accountabilities:

Develop and execute strategic sales plans tailored to your customer portfolio, grounded in a strong understanding of timber frame construction, market dynamics, and project delivery requirements.

Generate new business through proactive outreach, networking, and targeted prospecting, while nurturing existing relationships to maximise repeat business and long-term partnerships.

Collaborate closely with internal teams, particularly estimating, design, and operations to develop compelling proposals, manage project risks, and ensure accurate delivery planning.

Deliver technical presentations and CPDs to architects, developers, and specifiers, positioning our timber frame solutions as the preferred choice.
