Job description

Are you passionate about leading complex technical tender scopes and shaping competitive Foundation Transport & Installation (T&I) solutions? Do you want to play a central role in major offshore wind projects by ensuring technically robust, feasible, and cost-optimised tender packages? Then you may be the new Senior Technical Sales Manager at Cadeler.

Cadeler is a global partner in the offshore wind industry, specializing in wind farm construction and maintenance. As the industry grows rapidly, we are expanding our Technical Sales organisation with a Senior Technical Sales Manager who will drive the technical development of our Foundation T&I tenders.

You’ll be joining us in our brand-new Norwich office, at the heart of a vibrant city full of culture, great amenities, and easy access to stunning countryside and coastline. It’s the perfect place to grow your career, collaborate with an energetic team, and enjoy a great work-life balance.

What will you do?

As our Senior Technical Sales Manager, you will lead the technical aspects of Foundation T&I tenders from early feasibility through submission. You will guide the technical direction of the tender, coordinate input across the organisation, and ensure high-quality technical deliverables from all contributing professionals. Independence, strong technical judgement, and the ability to maintain overview across multiple disciplines are essential.

Your main tasks include:

• Lead the complete technical scope and feasibility assessment of Foundation T&I tender packages, ensuring alignment with client requirements, regulatory standards, and Cadeler’s operational capabilities.
• Define and drive the technical tender strategy, including optimised vessel strategies, installation methodologies, and technical solutions supporting a competitive and robust bid.
• Provide technical direction and coordination for the professionals contributing to the tender (Technical Sales Engineers at junior/professional/senior levels), ensuring consistency, quality, and alignment across all technical inputs.
• Oversee and quality-assure all technical tender deliverables, including tender-stage engineering, method statements, schedules, drawings, and technical assumptions.
• Lead cross-functional technical collaboration with Engineering, Vessel Management, HSEQ, Project Engineering, Tender Management, and external specialists to identify risks, develop solutions, and ensure a coherent tender package.
• Act as the main technical counterpart for clients, subcontractors, and suppliers—including handling clarifications, RFP scopes, technical evaluations, and negotiation of technical annexes.
• Drive continuous improvement, integrating lessons learned, developing templates and tools, ensuring accurate technical pricing, and executing a structured technical handover to the project execution team.

To succeed in this role

We are looking for a structured, analytical, and independent technical specialist who thrives in a fast-paced tendering environment and combines deep technical insight with strong commercial awareness.

You will be a great match if you have:

• BSc or MSc degree in engineering or another relevant technical discipline.
• Minimum 10 years of relevant experience within offshore wind, marine operations, or offshore oil & gas.
• Proven experience in senior-level technical coordination or technical leadership roles.
• Strong understanding of Foundation T&I operations and jack‑up vessel capabilities (advantage).
• Proficiency in Microsoft Office, SharePoint, Teams, and familiarity with AutoCAD 2D or similar tools.
• Excellent communication skills in English, with the ability to convert client needs into cost‑efficient, technically feasible solutions that optimise the use of resources and vessel capabilities.
• Excellent time and resource management skills, enabling you to prioritise effectively and maintain structure in a high‑pressure, deadline‑driven environment.
• A resilient and analytical mindset with the ability to work independently and deliver high‑quality output across multiple parallel tenders.
