As our Bid & Proposal Manager, your mission is to partner with sales and account management teams to deliver high-impact, professional, and winning bids & proposals for complex international requirements.

Operating out of our London office as a core pillar of our global enablement strategy, you will own the market requirements, coordinate complex B2B deals across global boundaries, and build out a scalable, AI-driven proposal architecture to directly drive international revenue growth.

  • AI Adoption & Scaling: Drive the usage metrics, optimization, and team-wide adoption of our internal MaltyAI RFP assistant to scale content delivery and maximize response efficiency.
  • Data-Driven Insights: Track, analyze, and report on RFP/proposal data, win/loss rates, core reasons for outcomes, and competitor movements to continuously improve international success rates.
  • Content Excellence: Draft, edit, and review clear, professional, and high-impact content that powerfully sells the commercial value of Malt to enterprise clients.

  • Commercial Acumen: Strong commercial awareness with the ability to connect cross-functionally, facilitate collaboration, encourage creative problem-solving, and confidently navigate conflict across teams.
  • Relevant experience (8-10 years): Proven track record in bid management, proposal development, or professional writing within a fast-paced complex B2B environment.
  • Project Management & Detail: Superb project management skills with a proven ability to track milestones, prioritize effectively, and deliver high-quality proposals under tight deadlines with meticulous attention to detail
