The individual will play a key role, working cross-functionally alongside the SVP Business Development, SVP Advisory & Delivery, and SVP Strategy & Partnerships to convert opportunities across the full breadth of daa International’s aviation expertise, from air service development, commercial and non-aeronautical revenue, and airport planning to operations, ORAT, concessions, and investment.

Responsibilities

• Lead end-to-end proposal and bid submissions, ensuring high-quality, compliant responses are delivered on time across advisory, concession, and investment opportunities.
• Coordinate cross-functional pursuit activities, managing inputs, milestones, and stakeholder engagement to support successful business development outcomes.
• Maintain and manage the sales pipeline and CRM, ensuring accurate opportunity tracking, reporting, forecasting, and prioritisation.
• Conduct market intelligence and opportunity analysis, providing research, benchmarking, and business case support to inform growth strategies.
• Support client, government, and partner engagement, including preparation of executive briefings, meetings, site visits, industry events, and trade missions.
• Drive business development enablement and thought leadership, maintaining case studies, collateral, templates, and best-practice tools to strengthen market positioning and improve pursuit efficiency.

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, Engineering, or a related field; relevant certification (e.g. PMP, PRINCE2, APMP) is an advantage.
• Minimum 3 years’ experience in project management, bid/proposal coordination, or business development support, ideally within aviation, infrastructure, or consulting.
• Proven ability to run proposals and submissions end to end, managing multiple deadlines without dropping quality.
• Excellent written English, with the ability to draft, edit, and structure clear, persuasive content.
• Advanced document and presentation production skills (PowerPoint, Word, Excel; Adobe suite an advantage), confident use of AI tools, and a strong eye for formatting, consistency, and compliance.
• Highly organised and process-minded, with experience maintaining pipelines, trackers, or CRMs.
• Strong coordination skills, comfortable gathering inputs from senior colleagues and external partners.
• Genuine interest in the aviation sector. Exposure to one or more aviation disciplines or to government and international stakeholder engagement is an advantage.
• Proactive, detail-oriented self-starter able to work independently and manage competing priorities under time pressure.
• Willingness to travel internationally, sometimes at short notice, for client engagements, events, and trade missions.
