• Support and lead large deal pursuits, RFP responses, bid defence activity and executive client presentations.
• Ensure strong qualification, solution differentiation, pricing alignment and commercial discipline.
• Position the business as a strategic transformation partner rather than a delivery vendor.

• Collaborate with delivery teams to demonstrate realised value through KPIs, operational performance and transformation impact.
• Lead account planning, forecasting, pipeline tracking, deal reviews and executive reporting.
