Do you know how to turn an early conversation with an architect into a specification—and stay involved until that project becomes an order?
Tristram Parker Recruitment is recruiting a specification sales professional for an established architectural building-products manufacturer, developing relationships and securing projects across London and the South East.
Working with aluminium window, door and curtain walling systems, you’ll engage with architects, façade consultants, developers and contractors on prestigious construction projects. You’ll help project teams select appropriate solutions, supported by technical colleagues, and take ownership of opportunities from initial design through to delivery.
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 role
- Build and develop relationships with architects, consultants and key project decision-makers.
- Identify projects early and influence specifications through design meetings, CPD presentations and technical discussions.
- Develop a focused territory plan covering priority practices, projects and sectors.
- Work with technical specialists to address design, performance, sustainability and compliance requirements.
- Maintain contact with contractors, fabricators and installers to protect specifications through tender and procurement.
- Convert specification opportunities into commercial results, coordinating with colleagues throughout the project lifecycle.
- Maintain accurate project information, forecasts and activity records.
What we’re looking for
You’ll have experience in specification sales, architectural business development or project consultancy within construction products, with a track record of influencing specifications and building lasting customer relationships.
Architectural aluminium experience would be particularly valuable, including windows, doors, curtain walling or façade systems. We also welcome candidates from related building-envelope sectors who understand the specification process and can demonstrate relevant technical and commercial knowledge.
