About the Role
As a Bid Manager at Unipart you will spearhead the end-to-end bid management process, transforming customer requirements into
high-impact, winning tender responses across Unipart’s diverse sectors and capabilities.
As part of your key responsibilities you’ll:

integrated into submission documents.
* Lead ‘capture’ bidding activity across appropriate strategic opportunities to ensure Unipart is in an optimal position to win

gathering; conceptual solution design; and value propositions.
* Track and manage key outputs, actions and clarifications throughout the bid process.
* Lead tender reviews meetings to drive collaborative sessions with the wider stakeholder team.
* Work with the wider bid management team on projects to improve bidding processes.
* Act as an ambassador for bid management practices across the wider Unipart Group.
