My experience includes high-value frameworks, SME bids, and complex multi-stakeholder tenders.

My Experience

Common Misconceptions

“We need a sector specialist to write this bid.”

Industry specialists know their subject, but winning bids require structure, clarity, and persuasion. My cross-sector insight ensures evaluators quickly grasp your value.

“Managing a bid just means meeting deadlines.”

Effective bid management ensures responses are not just complete, but compelling and strategically aligned to scoring criteria.

“We’ve done this before, we don’t need external support.”

Even experienced teams benefit from a fresh perspective—expert review and structuring can improve readability and scoring potential.
