Vacancy Title Technical & Product Director

Location South of England

CONFIDENTIAL EXECUTIVE SEARCH

Fire & Acoustic-Rated Doorsets | Leadership Team | South of England

Become the technical authority behind every product a market leader makes, and help shape its next chapter of growth.

Our client is a leading UK manufacturer of high-performance, fire and acoustic-rated timber doorsets, trusted by contractors, fit-out specialists and specifiers on demanding projects across the country. Privately owned, investor-backed and growing at pace, with revenue comfortably above £30m and ambitions for continued double-digit growth, the business has invested heavily in its people, capacity and product capability. It now wants a senior technical leader to take ownership of its product portfolio and its test evidence, and to join the leadership team that will drive the next stage.

This is a rare chance to hold the senior technical seat at the table in one of the most scrutinised and fastest-changing parts of the construction products market, at a time when getting it right has never mattered more.

YOUR MISSION

Lead the technical integrity, compliance and product stewardship of a market-leading portfolio of fire and acoustic-rated products, so that every doorset is safe, evidence-based and defensible, and so that the business can innovate and grow with confidence.

WHAT YOU’LL LEAD

Product strategy and portfolio: own the technical specifications, permitted applications and integrity of the whole product range.

Product development: lead new product development and lifecycle decisions, with disciplined, traceable change control.
Testing, certification and evidence: own the test programme, certification, technical files and relationships with certification bodies, keeping everything robust, current and audit-ready.
Regulatory leadership: interpret and prepare the business for regulatory change, including the transition from BS to EN standards, and represent the company with industry and external bodies.
Technical governance: set the standards, and give clear direction on technical risk and product liability.
The technical function: lead and develop the team across product engineering, technical delivery, testing and certification.
The leadership team: contribute to strategy, risk and investment decisions, working closely with operations, quality and commercial colleagues.

WHAT YOU’LL BRING

10-15 years in fire doors, fenestration, fire-resistant products or other regulated construction products.
Senior leadership across product development, design engineering, product management or technical stewardship.
Hands-on experience of managing testing, certification and technical files, and of working with certification bodies or regulators.
Deep knowledge of fire door construction, components, testing and failure modes, and of the relevant BS/EN standards, UKCA/CE marking and certification schemes.
A track record of delivering complex, cross-functional technical projects, and of leading an established team through significant change.
Strong product lifecycle, change control, risk assessment and root-cause analysis skills.
The confidence to explain complex technical matters clearly to colleagues, customers and the board, with sound commercial judgement and integrity.

WHY THIS ROLE STANDS OUT

Ownership

Full ownership of product strategy, technical integrity and compliance across a market-leading portfolio.

Autonomy

Set the technical direction, governance standards and development priorities, with the full backing of the MD.

Impact

Strengthen product safety, customer confidence and regulatory readiness at a pivotal moment for the industry.

Growth

A seat on the leadership team of an ambitious, investing business, broadening your executive career as it grows.

THE PACKAGE

Excellent basic salary, reflecting the seniority of the role
Car allowance, with access to an EV car scheme
Private medical insurance, health cash plan and employee assistance programme
Pension, life cover and 25 days’ holiday
Based on site in the South of England (working pattern to be discussed)

This is an opportunity to join an internationally recognised manufacturer of premium commercial interior products, known for quality, design, sustainability and a strong commitment to customer service.

This is not a traditional call centre position. It is a commercially focused international customer service, export and order management role where you will take responsibility for sales orders, quotations, dealer enquiries, export documentation and shipment coordination across the Middle East, Mediterranean and Africa.

Working within an established UK and EMEA customer service team, you will build trusted relationships with international customers, dealers, account managers, logistics partners and colleagues across production, warehousing, despatch and the wider international business.

The role offers stability, structured training, hybrid working following probation and genuine scope to develop your international customer service, export, systems and commercial knowledge within a supportive and collaborative environment.

The Role

You will act as a key point of contact for customers and dealers across the Middle East, Mediterranean and Africa, ensuring international quotations and orders are managed accurately from initial enquiry through to successful delivery.

The position combines international order management, customer service, export administration, dealer support, sales support and internal coordination.

Success will depend on accuracy, ownership and clear communication, together with the ability to remain calm and focused on solutions when managing changing priorities, documentation requirements and international delivery challenges.

This is not a purely reactive position. You will be expected to take initiative, identify potential issues, keep customers and dealers informed and ensure actions are followed through without unnecessary delay.

Input, manage and monitor international quotations and sales orders from initial enquiry through to fulfilment
Provide professional customer service and order support to customers and dealers across the Middle East, Mediterranean and Africa
Maintain accurate customer, pricing, stock, delivery and order information across internal business systems
Review the order book regularly and identify issues requiring action, escalation or customer communication
Prepare, process and validate export documentation to support accurate and compliant international shipments
Coordinate Ex Works logistics and high volume shipments in line with relevant market import and export requirements
Liaise with customers, dealers, logistics partners, account managers, production, warehousing and despatch to support successful delivery
Provide clear and timely information regarding products, pricing, stock availability, lead times, quotations and delivery arrangements
Manage customer and dealer enquiries professionally and take ownership of issues through to resolution
Maintain accurate customer and sales activity records using CRM, ERP and internal business systems
Support account managers throughout the specification, quotation and order process while building strong relationships across different countries and cultures
Work to agreed service standards, communicate customer feedback internally and identify opportunities to improve processes and the wider international customer experience

Knowledge, Skills and Experience Required

To be considered, candidates should be based within a realistic commuting distance of Birmingham and be comfortable working from the office during the probationary period.

Essential experience and attributes include:

Relevant experience within international B2B order management, customer service, export administration, international sales support, dealer support or a related position
Hands on experience supporting international customers or dealers and managing orders through to delivery or fulfilment
Practical experience preparing, processing or managing export documentation
Experience raising and processing quotations and sales orders
A clear understanding of international order management, customer communication and internal coordination

Strong attention to detail and a structured, organised approach
Experience using an ERP, CRM or order management system
Commercial awareness and the confidence to hold detailed customer and dealer conversations
Ability to remain calm under pressure, take ownership and see actions through from beginning to completion

Experience coordinating Ex Works shipments, working with freight forwarders or supporting customers across multiple international markets would be highly advantageous.

Experience using JD Edwards, Salesforce, Oracle or a comparable system would also be beneficial, although full systems training will be provided.

Previous experience within commercial interiors, flooring, furniture, building products, manufacturing, distribution, logistics or another product led B2B environment would be beneficial but is not essential.

Direct experience supporting customers or dealers across the Middle East, Mediterranean or Africa would be advantageous. Strong international export and dealer support experience across other global markets will also be considered.

The Person

This role will suit someone who is commercially aware, internationally minded and takes genuine pride in delivering an excellent customer experience.

You will be organised, methodical and attentive to detail, with the confidence to build effective relationships with customers, dealers, account managers and colleagues across different departments, countries and cultures.

You will be comfortable working within established export and order management processes while also demonstrating initiative when dealing with customer enquiries, documentation requirements, shipment challenges and changing priorities.

The successful candidate will bring a positive, hardworking and resilient attitude and will be motivated to become a trusted member of the wider international team.

What Success Looks Like

During the first 3 to 6 months, you will be expected to:

Vacancy Number 5593

Vacancy Title SPECIFICATION MANAGER

Location LONDON | SOUTH EAST | UK WIDE PROJECTS

PLEASE NOTE: The ideal candidate will be based within London or the South East. The role will have a strong London specification focus, developing influential relationships and helping shape projects that may ultimately be delivered across the UK and internationally.

Location can remain flexible for an exceptional candidate with the right specification network, technical capability and sector experience.

Job Description

Are you an accomplished specification sales professional with the credibility, technical understanding and commercial awareness to influence some of the UK’s most demanding security, infrastructure and built environment projects?

This is a strategically important Specification Manager opportunity with one of the UK’s most established specialists in high security entrance and access control solutions.

The business designs and delivers technically advanced entrance solutions including security doors, revolving doors, turnstiles, speed gates and intelligent access control systems across commercial buildings, data centres, critical national infrastructure, government environments, corporate headquarters and other highly secure locations.

The Specification Manager will be responsible for developing and strengthening relationships with architects, security consultants, specifiers, end users and other influential project stakeholders, positioning the business and its solutions at the earliest possible stage of the project lifecycle.

This is an influence led specification role, not a transactional product sales position.

The successful individual will act as a trusted specification partner, understanding project requirements, helping shape technically appropriate solutions, influencing specifications and maintaining engagement as opportunities progress from initial concept through design, tender, procurement and ultimately commercial delivery.

Why This Role Stands Out:

Represent an established and highly regarded specialist with more than 100 years of experience within high security entrance and access control solutions.
Take ownership of strategically important relationships across the architectural, specification and consultancy community.
Influence technically complex projects from the earliest design and specification stages.
Work across major commercial, infrastructure, data centre, government, critical national infrastructure and specialist security environments.
Develop specifications and relationships that can influence projects delivered across London, the UK and internationally.
Work closely with commercial, technical, design and project teams to turn early stage specification activity into deliverable and commercially valuable project opportunities.

Key Responsibilities:

Develop and maintain influential relationships with architects, security consultants, specifiers, end users and other key project stakeholders.
Promote the company’s complete portfolio of high security entrance and access control products, systems and service solutions.
Identify projects at the earliest possible stage and establish where the business can add technical and commercial value.
Understand design intent, security requirements, operational considerations and wider project constraints before recommending appropriate solutions.
Influence and secure product specifications by providing credible technical guidance and commercially appropriate solutions.
Deliver professional presentations, technical meetings, product demonstrations and specification discussions.
Develop new relationships while strengthening established specification relationships and strategic partnerships.
Track projects systematically from initial specification and design engagement through tender, procurement, order and delivery, maintaining visibility and protecting the specification wherever commercially possible.
Work closely with sales, estimating, technical, design and project delivery teams to ensure proposed solutions are technically achievable, commercially viable and properly supported.
Support pricing, proposal and tender activity where required, maintaining continuity between specification influence and commercial conversion.
Maintain accurate CRM records, project tracking, specification pipeline visibility and forecasting.
Monitor competitor activity, changing specification requirements, product developments and wider market opportunities.
Represent the company professionally across architectural practices, consultant meetings, industry events and other relevant market facing activity.

What we’re looking for:

An accomplished specification sales professional with a demonstrable track record of influencing architects, consultants, specifiers and other professional project stakeholders.
Ideally 3 to 5+ years of experience within a specification led technical construction, security, M&E, architectural products or aligned built environment sector.
Experience within security products, entrance systems, access control, automatic doors, aluminium systems, building envelope products, architectural products, lifts, escalators, M&E, construction products or another technically aligned sector would be highly relevant.
Direct security or entrance systems experience would be highly advantageous, although strong specification experience from an aligned technical product sector may be equally valuable.
Strong understanding of specification led project sales and the different stakeholders involved from concept and design through tender, procurement and delivery.
Experience identifying project requirements and developing technically appropriate product or system solutions.
Strong commercial awareness with an understanding of how specification activity ultimately converts into profitable project revenue.
Confidence presenting to architects, consultants, end users and senior project decision makers.
Strong relationship development and new business capability, with the confidence to create new opportunities rather than rely solely on established relationships.
The ability to understand technical information, drawings, specifications and project documentation and translate requirements into practical solutions.
CAD drawing knowledge would be advantageous but is not essential.
Knowledge of commercial buildings, infrastructure, data centres, government, critical national infrastructure or specialist security environments would be advantageous.
A stable and successful career history within relevant specification, project or technical sales environments.

Attributes & Mindset

Professional, credible and technically curious.
Commercially aware without being transactionally sales led.
Confident communicating with influential senior stakeholders and capable of representing the business professionally.
Able to listen, understand complex requirements and translate them into practical solutions.
Proactive, structured and disciplined in identifying and managing long cycle specification opportunities.
Comfortable operating autonomously while collaborating closely with internal commercial and technical teams.
Persistent and resilient, with the ability to maintain influence and protect specifications throughout extended project cycles.
Motivated by technical influence, relationship development, project progression and turning specification activity into measurable commercial outcomes.

This is an opportunity to take ownership of a strategically important specification function for an established specialist business operating within technically demanding and security-sensitive environments.

For the right person, the position offers the opportunity to build influential relationships across the architectural and consultancy community, become involved in significant projects from their earliest stages and play a direct role in strengthening the company’s specification pipeline across London, the UK and wider international opportunities.

SALARY & BENEFITS

Salary: Up to £70,000 with flexibility for exceptional experience.
Bonus: Up to 15% Bonus Scheme
Car: EV company car or car allowance
Benefits: 5% pension, life cover at 3x salary, 25 days holiday, mobile, laptop, Perkbox, retail discounts and cycle to work scheme

About Our Client

Provide technical guidance on product selection, fire compliance, and system performance
Work closely with technical, marketing and customer service teams to shape the Ireland strategy as it develops
Represent the business at industry events, exhibitions and trade bodies across Ireland, establishing brand presence in the market

What You’ll Bring

Essential

Proven technical sales experience within construction fixings, fire protection, or a closely related building products category
Strong technical understanding of fixing systems and/or passive fire protection (cavity barriers, firestopping)
Confident engaging with specifiers, architects, fire engineers and main contractors at a technical level
Track record of winning specification and managing the full sales cycle on technical, project-based work
Genuine appetite for building a territory from scratch, not just managing an existing one

Existing relationships within the Irish construction, fire protection, or specification market
Formal qualification or training in passive fire protection/firestopping
Experience with CPD delivery and technical training

What’s On Offer

Competitive salary, reflective of experience
Company car
Company pension scheme
