• Develop high-quality, persuasive bids that win big.
  
• Lead cross-functional teams to bring together content, pricing, and delivery strategies.
  
• Keep our Knowledge Library sharp and current (because great content deserves to be reused).
  
• Collaborate closely with Sales, Ops, and Finance to make sure our solutions hit the mark - commercially and operationally.
  
• Track performance, drive continuous improvement, and always be ready to evolve.
  
  🧠 What You Bring
  
  
• A proven record of winning large, strategic contracts through killer proposals.
  
• Serious commercial acumen - you can shape deals that make sense on paper and in real life.
  
• Leadership chops - you've built and led high-performing bid teams before.
  
• You're structured, organised, and obsessed with deadlines (in a good way).
  
• You can break down complex ideas into simple, compelling narratives.
  
• You're tech-savvy (CRM, Office tools, tender platforms - no problem).
  
• Calm under pressure. Confident when it counts. Always pushing for better.
  
  💡 You, in a Nutshell
  
  
• A natural storyteller who knows how to sell a vision.
