Presales Specialist

We are TXP. We help businesses and organisations move forward, at pace and at scale. We believe in the transformative power of combining technology and people. By providing consulting expertise, development services and resourcing, we work closely with organisations to solve their most complex business problems.

Our work transforms organisations – and we take that responsibility seriously. We focus on success, pursue excellence and take ownership of everything we do.

But achieving that level of performance requires an inclusive and supportive working environment. We believe in the power of technology and people, and we help everyone here to succeed. At TXP, you can multiply your potential.

We are seeking a versatile and proactive Pre-Sales & Bid Management Specialist to support our sales and business development process across both public and private sectors. This hybrid role combines bid management and bid writing responsibilities with pre-sales consultancy tasks, including proposal development, SoW creation, and sales collateral generation. You will work closely with sales owners, technology practice leads, and delivery teams to craft persuasive and technically sound submissions that help convert opportunities into wins. This includes producing high-quality written material for bids, RFPs, proposals, case studies, and maintaining a library of reusable content.

• Track record of writing successful bids, especially in the UK public sector (including GDS and Crown Commercial Frameworks).
• Experience working on both outcome-based and contingent resourcing bids.
• Understanding of technology concepts such as SaaS, Microsoft (.NET, Dynamics), legacy modernisation, or data analytics.
• Ability to manage multiple concurrent bid or proposal efforts under tight deadlines.
• High-level technical understanding and ability to translate technical concepts into client-focused messaging.
• Excellent stakeholder management – capable of engaging C-level stakeholders and collaborating cross-functionally.
• Familiarity with tools such as Tussell, Stotles, and Microsoft Office Suite.
