Senior Tendering Manager

Overview

We’re hiring a Senior Tender Manager to support large-scale, high-value projects for some of the world’s leading data centre clients – think Microsoft, Amazon, Google, Meta, and others. You’ll join a newly formed European Solution Centre dedicated to supporting the complex tendering needs of these strategic accounts. Working as part of a 12-person team, you’ll take the lead on commercial and technical tendering activities for opportunities worth €10M to €250M+.

This includes managing internal stakeholder alignment, pricing strategies, risk mitigation, and formal submission preparation. Each opportunity typically engages 20 to 30 contributors across factories, digital, services, legal, and supply chain functions.

The role is based in the UK, with travel up to once a month across Europe. You’ll be assigned one or two major accounts and remain focused on those portfolios.

• Lead commercial and technical tendering activities for opportunities worth €10M to €250M+
• Coordinate internal stakeholders across factories, digital, services, legal, and supply chain functions (typically 20–30 contributors per opportunity)
• Manage pricing strategies, risk mitigation, and formal submission preparation
• Ensure alignment and timely delivery of offers, with a focus on accuracy, competitiveness, and timeliness
• Influence and align multiple stakeholders as this is not a back-office role
• Lead and influence multidisciplinary teams to deliver responses, while not managing direct reports

• 5+ years in solution tendering, technical-commercial bids, or complex project environments
• Strong coordination skills across global teams
• Experience working within large matrix organisations
• Working knowledge of CPP (Customer Project Process) and Solution Business Policy (a plus)
• Data centre experience is helpful but not essential

Locations: UK (preferred: Leeds, Telford, London, flexible for the right candidate)
