Coordinate all estimating activities to ensure deadlines and deliverables are met.
Collaborate closely with commercial, operations, and business development teams to strengthen process efficiency and bid quality.
Mentor and develop team members, encouraging growth and accountability.
Liaise directly with clients, consultants, and supply chain partners to clarify scope and negotiate terms.
Attend project handovers, providing insight and continuity to the delivery team.
