• Coordination: collaborate with subject matter experts in compliance, legal, finance, and product for required inputs against deadlines
• Admin and submission: manage trackers, forms, the final formatting and QA, and the portal submission
• Win/loss tracking: log outcomes and client feedback to improve future bids
• You’ll work for the Bid Manager and closely partner with both the BD team, BD management along with cross-functional teams (Product, Operations, Finance, Legal).

You will bring a passion and dedication to continually improving the Customer Experience along with expertise in bid management and a genuine passion for sustainability; whilst being an honest, empathetic and an all-round great person.

You’ll have a track record of exceptional performance, be ambitious with a high degree of ownership. You’ll also have strong stakeholder management, attention to detail and be used to working in a fast paced, rapidly growing and high performing team.
