Ensure that all legal documentation is signed by appropriate executives, and that all required submissions are uploaded on correct portals well within deadlines.
    • Work with the Sales Team to establish an official tender response process.
    • Proposal development: Oversee the development of comprehensive and persuasive tender proposals. Ensure that content is accurate, compelling, and compliant with client specifications and that it has received appropriate internal sign-offs.

    • Risk assessment and mitigation: Together with internal colleagues across business divisions, identify and address potential risks associated with bid requirements or contract delivery, such as legal or contractual obligations, financial risks, or technical challenges to determine the viability of bidding.
    • Plan ahead: monitor numerous tender notification portals across market territories, downloading tender packs and listing the opportunities for discussion and decision-making with the sales team. Maintain a calendar of proposals in the pipeline, and keep the bid sheet (past, present, and future) updated in fine detail. 
  • Research

    • Continuous research: Stay updated on industry trends, competitors, bidding best practices, and other emerging technologies.
    • Conduct client, industry and competitor research to demonstrate excellent understanding of the client and inform the competitive positioning of a proposal for a more tailored approach.
