Key Responsibilities
- Develop the core argument for each bid: what it is, how it's sequenced, and why it will persuade the client.
- Own proposals and RFP responses end to end, including documents exceeding 60 pages.
- Produce supporting marketing content that reinforces the same positioning — case studies, white papers, and sector points of view.
- Conduct research from scratch on clients, sectors, competitors, and regulatory context.
- Participate in pre-bid client sessions to define the problem, map stakeholders, and assess the current state.
- Present to clients and internal stakeholders, including pitch sessions, workshops, and partner meetings.

- Confidence presenting to client executives and responding to challenging questions in real time.
- Strong research judgment — sourcing information, assessing reliability, and drawing sound conclusions.
- Sufficient business analysis capability to structure a problem, without extending into functional specification.
- Written English of a standard that withstands scrutiny from client legal and procurement teams.
- Working familiarity with technology topics — cloud, data platforms, software delivery, AI — without requiring coding ability.
