Your day at NTT DATA

We are currently looking for a “Bid Manager” to support the business in achieving its objectives.

The primary responsibility of Bid Managers is to manage in-country bids from the time that a sales opportunity is qualified (assessed as a desirable deal for NTT to pursue) to the time that we contract it and hand it over to our delivery teams.

The NTT Bid Process (part of the NTT Sales Engagement Process) spans this entire spectrum of activity and responsibility.

The Bid Manager ensures effective and efficient development of a compelling value proposition to the client that significantly increases our chance of winning business, allows us to deliver to our client’s needs and expectations, and at a profit to NTT and its partners.

The Bid Manager applies sound project management principles and expertise, including managing resources, timeframes, risk, quality and governance. As risk management remains imperative, the Bid Manager handles critical risks and mitigations appropriately. They utilise business systems and tools at a high level of proficiency.

What you'll be doing

• Work with the Sales lead to develop a clear winning strategy for each bid and ensure win themes are clear and compelling

• Facilitate the sourcing of general bid collateral and facilitate the delivery of all client-facing deliverables
