• Demonstrated experience leading complex EOIs and tender submissions for major infrastructure projects.
• Advanced writing, editing and content development skills, with a strong focus on quality, compliance and client outcomes.
• Proven ability to build relationships and influence multidisciplinary teams and senior stakeholders.
• Strong organisational skills with the ability to manage competing priorities and strict deadlines.
