* Supporting project handover to delivery teams post-award
You will be working on high-value (£multi-million) infrastructure projects, often within fast-paced and competitive tender environments.

* Demonstrable experience leading complex, high-value tenders
* Strong commercial awareness and ability to identify risk and opportunity
* Experience using tools such as MS Project and CAD (desirable)
* Confident communicator, able to coordinate across multiple stakeholders
We are also open to candidates who have progressed from engineering or project backgrounds into tendering, provided they have strong commercial and technical understanding.
