Let’s Talk about the Role

As Proposal Manager, you lead the preparation of high-quality, competitive proposals that support customer needs and create long-term value for the business.

You work across small to medium-sized tenders, helping turn customer requirements into clear, compelling commercial offers. You bring structure, sound judgement, and a strong understanding of bid processes to manage proposals from initial review through to submission. In this role, you collaborate with colleagues across functions, contribute to commercial discussions, and help ensure each proposal is compliant, competitive, and aligned with our business goals.

How You Will Make a Difference

• Leading the preparation and submission of clear, accurate, and competitive proposals for customers across the region

• Coordinating tender inputs, documentation, and reviews to ensure proposals are complete, compliant, and submitted on time

• Supporting commercial discussions and contract negotiations with a focus on value, risk awareness, and customer needs

• Driving competitive pricing approaches that balance customer expectations with sustainable business outcomes

• Assessing commercial risks and contract commitments to support strong decision-making throughout the bid process

• Collaborating with colleagues across sales, commercial, technical, and operational teams to build high-quality responses

• Contributing your market and product knowledge to help strengthen proposal quality and improve win potential

Skills for Success

You are a commercially aware and well-organised proposal professional who enjoys working across teams and delivering high-quality bids in a fast-paced environment, with:

• The ability to prepare, coordinate, and deliver tender and proposal documentation with accuracy and attention to detail

• The capability to manage priorities, keep activities on track, and work confidently within established bid and commercial processes

• An understanding of commercial risk, contract review, and the importance of compliant proposal submission

• Experience in sales, bids, or proposals, with the confidence to communicate clearly with colleagues and customers

• Strong problem-solving skills and the ability to analyse information and make sound recommendations

• The ability to build effective working relationships across teams and support shared outcomes

• Established skills in planning, organisation, and project coordination

A formal education and subsequent University Bachelor or Master’s degree are nice to have, but we are most interested in your total experience and professional achievements.

Key Responsibilities

• Manage proposals from initial tender kick-off through to submission and handover, ensuring a structured, timely, and high-quality bid process.

• Coordinate cross-functional inputs from commercial, technical, sourcing, planning, and execution teams to develop compliant and competitive offers.

• Lead internal proposal reviews covering strategy, risk, assumptions, costing, and resource planning to support strong commercial outcomes.

• Own cost outputs, benchmarking data, and pricing assumptions to help develop robust and competitive proposals.

• Ensure proposal documentation is accurate, complete, and aligned with customer requirements and internal governance processes.

• Utilise lessons learned and support continuous improvement across tendering activities.

• Contribute to a smooth handover from tendering to execution following contract award.
