• Working with M&E Consultants, Contractors, Engineers and/or Specifiers
• Developing new business and building project pipelines

This would particularly suit someone who enjoys the technical and consultative side of project and specification sales and wants the autonomy to develop a territory without being heavily micromanaged.
