You will review and analyse tender documentation, identify key requirements, coordinate responses and ensure submissions are completed accurately and within agreed deadlines.
Working closely with sales, product and technical teams, the Tender Manager will help develop tailored solutions that meet customer requirements while supporting wider commercial objectives.
This is a diverse role combining tender management, bid writing, project coordination, product management, stakeholder engagement and commercial support. You will be responsible for coordinating multiple workstreams, ensuring the relevant teams are aligned and that customer, product and commercial requirements are understood and addressed throughout the tender process.
The Tender Manager will also contribute to cost evaluation, risk assessment, solution development and project coordination, working alongside sales and internal teams to ensure opportunities are progressed effectively from initial tender through to successful submission and beyond.

An engineering background or strong technical understanding would be advantageous, particularly experience working with technical products or solutions, but this is not essential.
