Contract / Specification Sales Manager – North East & North Yorkshire
ASR International is partnering with a market-leading and highly successful business to recruit a Contract / Specification Sales Manager across the North East and North Yorkshire.
This is an established and commercially significant territory, currently generating in excess of £15 million, with approximately 40 active accounts and relationships with some of the UK's leading national and regional housebuilders.
The business has enjoyed sustained growth over recent years and continues to invest in its people, products and contract offering. For the right individual, there is genuine scope to develop the territory further and progress within the wider business over time.
The Role
You will take ownership of an established regional customer base while identifying opportunities to increase sales, margin and market share.

Key responsibilities will include:
- Managing and developing a £15m+ regional territory with circa 40 active accounts
- Building relationships with national and regional housebuilders across the North East and North Yorkshire
- Developing relationships at regional, commercial and operational level
- Identifying new projects, developments and specifications
- Converting quotations and opportunities into secured business
- Growing revenue, margin and market share across the region
- Working closely with internal contracts, quotations, customer service and installation teams
- Monitoring competitor activity and identifying opportunities for further growth
- Ensuring excellent account management throughout the project lifecycle
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The Person
We are looking for an experienced, commercially driven sales professional who understands the contract, specification or new-build market. We're particularly interested in candidates with experience selling into housebuilders and developers, but we would also consider strong candidates from the wider KBB, bathrooms, interiors, Kitchen, Flooring, Appliances, Furniture, building products, construction products, or merchant sectors who can demonstrate relevant project-led relationships.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You will need to be credible in front of major customers, commercially astute, proactive and comfortable managing a substantial existing territory while still having the hunger to develop new business.
The Opportunity
This isn't a territory that needs rebuilding from scratch. You are taking responsibility for an established £15m+ region, strong customer relationships and around 40 active accounts within a market-leading business that continues to grow.
Alongside realistic earnings of £65,000+ and an electric vehicle, there is excellent scope for someone ambitious to develop their career and potentially progress into broader regional, national or leadership responsibilities as the business continues to evolve.
