Creating a world class bid submission while adhering to local and international clients’ specific requirements is an absolute passion of mine. My experience in Bid Management spans more than 15 years across various sectors/industries, including Public Sector (Government Entities), Private Sector, Insurance, Retail, Telco and Media, Automotive and Manufacturing, managing the full end-to-end bid process.
My core focus is the management of complex and transformational opportunities, for example managed services, outsourced, cloud and system integrator solutions and services. I have successfully managed bids for 2 years remotely / virtually with teams based in multiple location around the world.
As Bid Manager I was required to take an active role within teams that included territory and regional Heads of Transformational Business Development, Sales and Pre-Sales, Services/ Solution Architects, Commercial, Legal, Operational, Delivery and Executive functions to ensure that sales opportunities are managed and submitted in a structured, risk appropriate and transparent manner in accordance with the respective governance framework and quality standards.
