The opportunity

What if your next role puts you at the center of multi-million-dollar projects transforming the energy system? As a Senior Tender Manager, you will shape and execute bid strategies for large, complex HVDC pursuits, coordinating multidisciplinary teams and shaping solutions that bring together capabilities from across the Hitachi Energy portfolio. From defining the bid strategy to presenting a compelling technical and commercial offering to the customer, you will play a central role in winning the projects that will shape the future power grid.

“At Bid & Proposals, we lead the tendering of large-scale HVDC greenfield projects worldwide. My team focuses on the Northern European (NEU) market and is based in Sweden and the UK. Last year alone, our department secured 5 HVDC projects across the NEU region, giving our team a direct role in shaping Hitachi Energy’s business pipeline. We play a key role in driving business growth, supporting net-zero targets, and helping secure Europe’s energy supply..” – Louise Hellman, Hiring Manager.
