Water dripping in above window

Ive just noticed water leaking in above my downstairs window. Its dripping through the plaster just below where the lintel would be. Has only just started on a day with heavy rain.

Is this a job for builder or a window fitter or am i best calling another trade?

"Hello Mike, this is a builders job need to find where the main leak is coming from, might be on your wall or might be from the roof, it’s a builders job not a window fitter job.
Kind regards
