Sales Surveyor – Residential Fit-Outs Projects
London and surrounding areas
Competitive base salary + attractive performance bonus + mileage allowance
Full-time, permanent | Field-based with flexible home/office working
About Company:
We are an established and growing residential installation company delivering kitchens, bathrooms and associated fit-out works across London.
We are looking for a commercially minded Sales Surveyor to meet prospective customers in their homes, understand what they want to achieve, survey their space accurately and guide them through the project process - from the first site visit to an approved proposal.
This is not a purely technical measuring role, nor is it a desk-based sales position.
You will be out in the field meeting homeowners, assessing properties, identifying upsell opportunities and helping customers feel confident about choosing us to complete their project. You will then turn the information gathered on site into a clear scope of work and accurate quotation.
You will work in a close-knit, entrepreneurial environment alongside the company owner and the wider operations team.
You will have direct involvement in how we improve our customer journey, sales process, service offering and commercial performance.
For the right person, this is an opportunity to become a key part of a growing company and develop into a senior sales, commercial, surveying or project management position.
What you will be doing
Your typical week will include three to four days visiting customers and one to two days preparing quotations, following up opportunities and coordinating with the team.
You will:
- Visit residential properties across London and the surrounding areas
- Introduce the company, explain our service and build trust with prospective customers
- Consult with homeowners to understand their requirements, priorities, budget and timescale
- Carry out accurate kitchen measurements
- Identify potential complications before work begins
- Recommend practical adjustments where appropriate
- Define the installation scope of work
- Prepare accurate quotations
- Follow up enquiries and quotations through a structured sales process
- Handle questions and objections professionally
- Maintain accurate customer, survey and sales records
- Liaise with installers, project coordinators, designers and external retailers
Who we are looking for:
You may currently work as a sales surveyor, estimator, kitchen or bathroom designer, project consultant, property professional, refurbishment salesperson or construction sales executive.
You must be comfortable combining technical detail with confident, consultative selling.
You will ideally have:
- Experience within residential refurbishment, kitchens, bathrooms, interiors, fit-outs, construction or a related property sector
- A good understanding of London homes, including apartments, period properties and the practical challenges involved in refurbishment
- Experience carrying out site visits, surveys, measurements or property assessments
- Strong commercial awareness
- A natural ability to establish rapport and credibility with homeowners
- A consultative sales approach rather than an aggressive or scripted style
- Excellent attention to detail
- Strong written and verbal communication skills
- The ability to prepare professional scopes and quotations
- Confidence managing several live opportunities at different stages
- Good organisation and follow-up discipline
- The motivation to work independently while remaining closely connected to the team
- A practical, solutions-focused mindset
- Familiarity with CRM systems, Microsoft Office or similar business software
Kitchen and bathroom experience would be highly valuable, but we are also interested in candidates from estate agency, property services, interior fit-out, construction, design-and-build or home improvement backgrounds who have the right combination of technical understanding and sales ability.
Essential travel requirements:
This is a field-based position involving regular customer appointments throughout London and the surrounding boroughs.
You must have:
- A full UK driving licence
- Your own reliable car
- The ability and willingness to travel between customer appointments
Business mileage will be reimbursed.
What we offer:
- Competitive base salary
- Performance-related bonus
- Business mileage allowance
- Monday-to-Friday working, with occasional Saturday appointments when required
- Flexible home and office working around customer visits
- A consistent and growing pipeline of projects
- Direct access to the company owner and involvement in business decisions
- Support from an experienced installation and operations team
- The autonomy to organise your appointments and manage your sales pipeline
- Training on our services, sales, pricing and internal processes
- Pension scheme
- Genuine scope to progress
- The opportunity to help build the sales function of an ambitious growing company
What success looks like:
You will succeed in this role by conducting accurate surveys, creating clear and commercially sound proposals, following up consistently and giving every prospective customer a professional and reassuring experience.
You will take ownership of opportunities rather than simply completing site visits. You will understand that great sales in the refurbishment industry comes from listening carefully, identifying risks early, communicating clearly and helping customers make confident decisions.
