Field Based
A rare opportunity for a senior commercial leader to take ownership of a high-value national accounts portfolio within the construction and engineered solutions space.

someone who understands how national contractors think, buy and commit, and who can translate that insight into long-term, sustainable revenue.
The Brief
You will lead a small, experienced national accounts team and personally shape the strategy for engaging a defined group of major national customers. The focus is not transactional sales, but long-term positioning, influence and strategic alignment across projects, regions and decision-makers.
Success in this role comes from credibility, commercial intelligence and the ability to build deep, multi-layered relationships that stand the test of time.

Full ownership of national account strategy across key customers, sectors and projects
Leadership and development of a national accounts team, setting direction and standards
Negotiation of complex trading agreements, frameworks and commercial structures

Identifying where and how growth will be won over the medium to long term

You will bring:
Proven success in national or strategic accounts within a complex, multi-product business
Experience influencing senior stakeholders within main contractors or major project environments
The gravitas to operate at executive and framework level
Strong commercial and contractual capability
A leadership style that develops capability rather than manages activity
High levels of autonomy, judgement and commercial discipline
Why This Role
Senior, visible position with genuine influence over national strategy
Long-term customer engagement rather than short-cycle sales pressure
Opportunity to shape how national customers are approached and serviced
Backed by established regional and operational teams
