The Opportunity:

Are you a technical sales hunter who knows the architectural and building-products market?

I'm working with an established Australian manufacturer specialising in architectural renders, textured finishes and coating systems used across residential, commercial and architectural projects.

You don't necessarily need to come from coatings. If you sell a technical architectural or building product, know how to find new opportunities and enjoy winning new business, I'd be interested in speaking with you.

You'll be dealing with architects, designers, builders and developers, finding projects early and helping get the right products specified.

What you'll be doing:

• Develop new relationships with architects, designers, builders, developers and contractors.
• Identify projects and opportunities before they reach the point of purchase.
• Introduce render, textured finish and coating systems to the right people.
• Understand what a project needs and recommend the right product or system.
• Follow opportunities from the initial conversation through to specification and sale.
• Build your own pipeline while continuing to develop existing relationships.
• Work closely with the internal technical team to support customers and projects.

Who we’re looking for:

I'm not too concerned about your exact job title or the product you're currently selling.

You could be working across:

Coatings, Renders, Waterproofing, Sealants, Adhesives or Interior Finishes

Or you might currently be a:

BDM, Architectural Sales Manager, Specification Manager, Architectural Representative, Technical Sales Consultant, Account Manager or Project Sales Specialist

What matters most is that you know how to hunt.

You enjoy finding new opportunities, getting through the door, building relationships and ultimately winning the project.

You'll also need to be technically minded and comfortable talking with architects, builders and contractors about how and why a product should be used.

What's on offer:

You'll be joining an established Australian manufacturer with a specialist product range and a strong technical team behind you.

This is a genuine opportunity to develop the Sydney market, rather than simply manage an existing list of accounts.

• $120K–$140K + Super.
• Car / vehicle allowance.
• Uncapped commission.
• Strong technical and product support.

Apply Now:

I'm David Hamilton from Salexo Consulting. I'm a Registered Architect (Reg. No. 11571) who moved into recruitment after working within architectural practice.

That background means I understand the conversations that happen between architects, manufacturers, suppliers, builders and the wider construction industry.

If you're an experienced architectural or building-products salesperson and think your technical sales skills could transfer into this opportunity, I'd be happy to have a confidential conversation.
