• Work collaboratively with the Bid teams, supporting the development of each bid solution through creative storyboarding.
• Partner with subject matter experts (SMEs) to translate solutions into clear and compelling information for bid responses.
• Develop winning bid responses: You'll write well-structured, accurate, concise, and visually engaging content that effectively conveys the message, meets customer requirements (including word count, presentation, and evaluation criteria), and achieves high scores.
• Conduct additional research to supplement responses, including gathering and presenting relevant data.
• Incorporate persuasive elements such as win themes, USPs, sales messages, case studies, and insightful commentary on current trends into your writing.
• Ensure consistent language quality across bids by maintaining a unified terminology, tone, and style throughout submissions.
