  • Maintain compliance with industry standards and client requirements in all submissions.
  • Maintain databases of costs, manage rate cards, and ensure accurate documentation throughout the bid process.
  • Engage directly with clients to clarify project expectations and manage pre-award negotiations.
  • Work with proposal submittal platforms such as Ariba, Aconex, or similar systems to streamline the submission process.
  • Draft and manage change orders during the proposal phase to reflect client requirements and scope adjustments.
  • Continuously improve proposal processes and templates for efficiency and effectiveness.

  • A collaborative mindset with the ability to work effectively across creative, technical, and commercial departments.
  • Knowledge of global construction and procurement phases.


It would be great if you have:


  • Familiarity with technical engineering and equipment, game development, media development and creative design.
  • Experience with immersive and themed entertainment projects


What We Offer:


  • A competitive salary and benefits package.
