Job description
Schneider Electric's Customer Projects, Solutions and Services business in Saudi Arabia wins work through tenders, and this Senior Associate runs them from start to finish. Bids cover Capex and Opex opportunities, ranging from straightforward to highly complex. Each request for quotation is analysed and turned into an accurate cost estimate using proven methods and tools. Customer requirements are interpreted to shape a winning strategy, with commercial risks and opportunities assessed along the way. Offer documents must be compliant with company policy and the CPP process while still persuading the customer. Pricing models balance competitiveness with margin, and contract terms are structured to protect profitability. Timelines and deliverables are coordinated across cross-functional teams, and colleagues benefit from your mentoring. The role is onsite and suits someone with solid tendering, pricing and risk management skills and a clear, persuasive writing style.
