The purpose of this role is to lead capture activities for qualified opportunities, shaping SEA’s winning strategy from early engagement through to bid submission in line with SEA’s Business Winning Framework and governance gates.
The Capture Lead will be based at any of SEA's UK sites, with travel to any site as required by the role. This role allows for flexible and home working.
The salary for this role is up to £80k, depending on experience.
What you'll be doing
- Own the end-to-end capture plan for strategically important opportunities, including the customer engagement plan, stakeholder map, competitive assessment and win themes.
- Define and communicate the win strategy and win story, ensuring alignment between customer need, SEA value proposition, solution approach, price position and delivery model.
- Lead internal opportunity shaping activities: clarify requirements, identify solution options, assess risks/opportunities and drive mitigation/closure actions.
The skills you need
- You'll
bring proven experience of leading capture activities and shaping bids for
complex programmes within defence, security or similarly regulated
environments. Experience in marine products/solutions would be a bonus
- You'll
demonstrate excellent written and verbal communication skills, and a talent for
coordinating multi-disciplinary teams, setting direction, prioritizing actions
and driving timely decisions
- If you're able to bring an established network across UK and/or international defence customers, primes and integrators (maritime preferred), this would be a significant bonus
