ABOUT THE ROLE

As a Bid Manager, you will:

• Strategy: You’ll lead the response for RFIs, RFPs, and RFQs. This means identifying the key requirements, defining our differentiators, and building a pricing strategy that actually makes sense.

• Project Management: You’ll be the central point for Sales, Engineering, Finance, and Legal. You set the timelines, gather the technical info, and make sure the final submittal is accurate and on time.

• The Content: You’ll oversee the creation of technical solutions and executive summaries. We use proposal automation tools to keep things efficient, and you’ll be responsible for keeping that knowledge base updated.

• Closing: You’ll help prepare and deliver bid presentations to customers, handle objections, and assist in negotiating contract terms.

• Review: After the dust settles, you’ll lead debriefs to figure out what worked, what didn’t, and how we win the next one.

WHAT DO WE EXPECT FROM YOU?

• 5+ years in bid management, proposal writing, or project management.

• Technical background: Ability to translate engineering specs into clear, persuasive documents.

• Organization: Proven track record of hitting hard deadlines with multiple stakeholders.

• Software: Proficiency in Microsoft Office and proposal tools (SharePoint, etc.).

• Education: Degree in Business, Engineering, or a related field.

• Bonus: Experience in the EV charging industry or a PMP certification.
