Bid Writer
About Tecknuovo
We are a technology delivery partner, offering a unique service in the undiscovered sweet spot between consultancy and capability development. There’s a better way to deliver consulting services. We do that by freeing our customers from dependency in everything we do.
We free them from relying on external sourcing by delivering on their complex technology challenges at pace with expert teams. And we eliminate their dependence on suppliers by creating the in-house technical capability they’ll need to build tomorrow.
The quality of our people and teams hinges on our associate model. This is how we work with our community of un-benched, ego-free consultants to mobilise services within 14 days.
About the role
We are looking for an ambitious and creative Bid Writer to join our internal sales team and help create winning content for our proposals and responses. We’re looking for a strategic thinker who loves writing and can work first-hand with subject matter experts to understand complex solutions and technical information and articulate these into a concise and engaging narrative. You’ll need a strong attention to detail and be able to identify where responses can be improved and implement edits to add that value. Whilst homing in on technical details, you’ll need to weave in higher-level win themes to write fully rounded proposals that meet the client’s ask. Ideally, you’ll have an understanding of the public sector and technology consulting, in areas such as cloud, DevOps, platforms, and software engineering, and delivery within it.
