We're looking for a Project Specialist to join our team and actively welcome applications from local candidates and candidates willing to relocate to the area. This role will cover Stratford, barking and the surrounding areas This is no ordinary sales job, as ours is a uniquely high-performing and supportive working culture. You will have the opportunity to work on some of the UK’s biggest construction projects whilst at the same time receiving world-class training and development to take your career to the next level. Who is Hilti? Unless you work in construction, you probably haven't heard of us. We're a hidden gem. We provide leading-edge tools, technologies, software and services for the professional construction sector. Our customers are loyal and enthusiastic about us. So are our people. We regularly win Great Place to Work awards globally and have been on the Times Top 100 Best Companies to Work For list in the UK for the past 13 years – we are proud to have been voted 35 in 2019.
