Your responsibilities will include:

• Lead and Manage the Tender Process: Take ownership of the entire bid process, ensuring a stable, predictable flow from customer inquiry through to final bid submission.
• Produce High-Quality Proposals: Create winning proposals that clearly demonstrate the value of our products and solutions, addressing customer needs and exceeding expectations.
• Coordinate Cross-Functional Teams: Collaborate with Product Management, R&D, Marketing, Delivery, and Technical Support teams to ensure the development and delivery of bids that are comprehensive, accurate, and timely.
• Analyze Tender Documents: Review and analyze customer tenders, identifying key requirements, risks, and opportunities for differentiation.
• Risk and Compliance Management: Assess risks in contractual documents and work with stakeholders to develop mitigation strategies. Ensure full compliance with all relevant laws and regulations.
• Monitor and Report Progress: Track bid progress, report on outcomes, and ensure adherence to timelines, helping to maintain a smooth and steady tender process.
• Support Sales Managers: Work closely with Sales Managers during the bid phase to ensure alignment with sales strategies and customer expectations.
• Refine Bid Management Templates: Develop and maintain templates and processes that streamline our bid management workflow and ensure consistency.

YOUR PROFILE

We are looking for someone with:

• 3-5 years of experience in bid management, proposal writing, or a similar role - possibly holding a technical degree.
• Fluency in both English and German (written and spoken).
• Strong MS Office and likely MS Project skills; familiarity with tools like Visio, Photoshop, or other graphical software is a plus.
• A passion for learning and becoming a key expert in our bid management process.
• Excellent communication skills and the ability to understand and translate customer needs into compelling proposals.
• Experience with high-tech products and solutions would be beneficial.
