Tender Manager

Company Description

As a Tender Manager, you are the strategic linchpin behind our most integral and complex civil tenders. Whether it concerns the replacement and renovation of rail and road tunnels, movable bridges, large-scale locks or integral station projects where civil and rail come together: you are the driving force that makes the difference.

Thanks to your sharp insight and feeling for what the customer really needs, you develop a well-thought-out and distinctive tender approach. You maintain an overview and pace: from understanding customer demand to developing a convincing strategy and realizing a strong plan of action. You do this together with an enthusiastic and multidisciplinary team. You combine creativity with structure, and actively steer towards collaboration and results.

We work on civil projects up to 100 million euros. Challenging assignments where technology, innovation and collaboration are central. In this, you play a key role as Tender Manager: you ensure that we not only participate, but also win.

Your main responsibilities:

• You are responsible for the entire tender process: from analyzing customer demand and determining the strategy to submitting the bid and the smooth handover to the execution team.
• You translate customer needs into a smart strategy that leads to a complete and distinctive bid – on time, within budget and with a strong chance of award.
• You lead and motivate a multidisciplinary project team and ensure focus, collaboration and energy in the tender process;
• You present the tender strategy to the management team and the group management, including opportunities, risks and contractual impact (both at the beginning and end of the tender process);
• You actively follow market developments and anticipate upcoming tenders and customer needs.
