We currently have a fantastic opportunity for a Regional Account Manager to be responsible for securing fire detection and electronic security installation projects across Cumbria by developing and strengthening relationships with regional clients. You will lead the sales cycle and company relationships as well as carrying out building surveys and system design with innovation and adaptability. For large and sophisticated projects we can provide full support with surveyors, designers and estimators.

How you will do it
Reporting to Regional Sales Manager, the Regional Account Manager will work with key contacts in the Education, healthcare, industrial and large commercial sectors, building opportunities to bid on projects and present technical information to board level. You will handle leads and drive sales performance using Salesforce. For large or sophisticated proposals an Estimator / Technical Bid Manager will be available to support. Key objectives are pipeline growth and conversion improvement, working in collaboration with the team to drive growth against a defined sales target.
