• Candidates from a wholesale or distribution background who are looking to move into technical sales.
  

• Experienced specification-led sales engineers with knowledge of HVAC or related products and an understanding of the route to market, ideally gained with another manufacturer.
  

• Field sales experience with a wholesaler, distributor, or manufacturer within the construction industry.
