Inside Sales Specification Consultant

About the role 

You'll be the technical expert customers rely on when they're figuring out how to light a space. Working from our Archdale office, you'll review architectural drawings, interpret room and building layouts, and help clients land on the right Häfele lighting hardware and design solutions for their projects — whether it's a kitchen remodel or a commercial build-out. No field work, no travel. Just you, your lighting knowledge, and a queue of people who genuinely need your help. 

What you'll do day to day 

• Consult with customers on lighting hardware needs — reading their drawings, asking the right questions, and recommending specific products and layouts.
• Design and specify custom lighting solutions, using Häfele's internal systems for quotes and orders.
• Interpret construction drawings and translate them into hardware specifications and lighting plans
• Handle project management and phone support for active lighting projects.

What we're looking for 

• Associate degree or higher in a technical, design, or architectural field — or equivalent hands-on experience.
• Background in architectural lighting, interior design, or a related field — you understand how light behaves in a space.
• Comfortable reading and interpreting construction drawings and architectural plans
• Good communicator who's comfortable advising customers.

Nice to have: Adobe Illustrator experience for design layouts
