Area Specification Manager
Location: London & South East
Salary: Up to £50,000 Basic, £12-15,000 Bonus, Hybrid Car, Company Pension
This is an excellent opportunity to join a market-leading manufacturer within the electrical sector, offering full training, strong support and the chance to build a long-term career in specification sales.
About the Opportunity
Previous specification experience is not required. We're looking for someone with the ability to build relationships, identify opportunities and manage projects through to completion. If you've sold products or services into construction, housing, contractors, merchants, wholesalers or related sectors, we'd be keen to hear from you.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
