Collaboration & Coordination:




  • Coordinate inputs from Sales, Product, Legal, Finance, HR, and Technology teams.

  • Edit and format content to meet brand and client-specific guidelines.

  • Review final submissions for completeness and quality before delivery.



Reporting & Continuous Improvement:




  • Track win/loss ratios and analyze performance data to inform future bids.

  • Report on bidding pipeline status weekly and flag any risks or blockers early.

  • Recommend improvements to streamline and optimize the proposal process.



Qualifications & Skills

Education & Experience:




  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, Communications, or a related field.

  • Minimum 5 years of experience in a bid/proposal/tender management role (preferably in a technology, consulting environment).

  • Strong understanding of the public sector, enterprise procurement processes, and OEM ecosystem (preferred).



Key Competencies:




  • Exceptional project management and time management skills.

  • High attention to detail and ability to manage multiple bids simultaneously.

  • Strong written and verbal communication.

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite (especially Word and PowerPoint).

  • Familiarity with OEM Center, RFx portals, and CRM systems (a plus).



Success Metrics:




  • % of bids submitted on or before deadlines

  • Conversion rate from bids to shortlist or award
