• Ensure bids are delivered using best practice (BICSI and manufacturer guidelines)
• Create handover packs, cabling schedules, wall elevations, schematics, and installation documentation
• Own and refine cost models, applying value engineering to maximise margin
• Provide technical governance, risk management, and commercial assurance across opportunities
• Support customer presentations and mid/post-bid discussions

What you’ll need

• Strong experience in structured cabling design and estimation (essential)
• Knowledge of containment/pathway design and survey validation
• Understanding of IP-connected solutions including WiFi, CCTV, AV, and meeting room technology
• Strong knowledge of Microsoft Teams Rooms (MTR) design and cabling principles
• CAD and Bluebeam experience, plus strong Excel/Office skills
• Commercial confidence (costing, margins, risk awareness), ideally with experience on £500K+ bids
• Willingness to work towards BICSI (RCDD/CDCDP) or relevant AV/WiFi/CCTV certifications
