- Making 10-25 outbound calls per day to professionals such as Site Managers, Project Managers, QS Managers, Estimators, Pre-Construction teams, Buyers, and H&S leads within the Industry sector, covering Power Generation, Oil & Gas, Nuclear, Renewables, and more.
- Speaking with around 10 decision-makers per day once settled into the role
- Building strong relationships by asking smart, targeted questions
- Using LinkedIn and other tools to research and source new contacts
- Tracking down upcoming projects and identifying where we can support clients on site
- Securing high-quality leads and arranging meetings for our Estimating Team
