Are you someone who enjoys turning ideas into action and bringing people together to make things happen? We're looking for a Proposals Co-ordinator to join a passionate team that's working on meaningful projects and building a better future.
What you'll be doing:
This is a dynamic, cross-functional role where no two days are quite the same.
You'll:
- Create clear, accurate proposals and quotations in response to client enquiries, on time and to a high standard.
- Support internal approvals by compiling the right documentation to get buy-in.
- Collaborate with internal teams (engineering, production, sales) and external partners (including subcontractors) to move proposals forward.
- Work closely with the sales team to identify new opportunities and see them through to order stage, keeping an eye on costs, timescales, and market trends.
- Use tools like Excel, Word, and SAP to support your work.
- Be a key player in delivering excellent customer experiences and achieving service goals.
What we're looking for:
We're not just looking for a "tick-box" candidate. We'd love to hear from you if you have:
- Proven experience in a customer-facing or commercial role.
- Strong commercial awareness and negotiation skills, with a solid grasp of costings and contracts.
- Great communication skills and a confident, proactive approach.
- A natural problem-solver with an analytical mindset.
- The ability to build strong relationships and work well across teams.
- A working knowledge of Microsoft Office tools (Excel/Word) and ideally SAP.
- Fluent English skills - written and spoken.
Why join us?
This is a place where your voice matters and your ideas are welcome. We believe in empowering people to do their best work - whether that's supporting each other, embracing change, or learning from missteps along the way. You'll be encouraged to take initiative, think creatively, and grow with a team that's moving forward together.
