- Manage tender pipelines and maintain healthy opportunity pipelines through proactive planning, deadline tracking, and submission forecasting.
- Coordinate multidisciplinary teams (architects, engineers, quantity surveyors, and planners) to gather inputs, validate scope, and prepare compliant submissions.
- Coordinate internal kick-off meetings, facilitate bid reviews, and ensure submissions align with strategic business goals.
- Liaise with internal reviewers and leadership for feedback, sign-off, and submission readiness.
- Support pre-positioning and client engagement efforts with Business Development and Technical Directors.
- Review tender documentation to extract key requirements, timelines, and evaluation criteria; summarise for internal stakeholders.
- Uphold quality assurance and continuous improvement of bid processes, working toward the professionalisation of the bid function.
- Develop and maintain a library of CVs, project profiles, templates, and proposal content for rapid reuse and consistency.

- Other role-specific duties as they arise.

- Strong ability to work with highly specialised, time-poor technical experts, supported by excellent interpersonal skills.
- Confident project management approach, able to coordinate multiple moving parts, resolve delays, and guide inputs across complex infrastructure bids.
- Strong writing, editing, and synthesis skills with a focus on clear, compelling, and compliant content.
