- Technical Authority: Attend site surveys, identify suitable water treatment equipment (e.g., base exchange, reverse osmosis, dosing equipment, and filtration), and develop bespoke installation solutions.
- Commercial Strategy: Work closely with internal finance, sales, and operations teams to align on pricing, margin goals, and sales forecasts.
- Reporting: Prepare detailed weekly and monthly sales reports, forecasts, and presentations for the Commercial Director.
- Collaboration: Liaise with the internal water consultancy business to highlight and capture prospective opportunities.

- Drive & Accuracy: Highly self-motivated, accurate, professional, and proficient in managing multiple tasks to meet tight deadlines.
