Bid Manager

Ready to take your career global?

Make your mark at one of the biggest names in payments. We’re looking for an experienced Bid Manager to join our ever-evolving Enterprise Sales Enablement team and help lead strategic opportunities, shape compelling responses, and win enterprise business.

What you’ll own

· Independently lead complex RFIs, RFPs, and other strategic proposal efforts from qualification and kickoff through response strategy, stakeholder coordination, reviews, production, and final submission.

· Build and manage the proposal plan, including the response timeline, compliance requirements, work assignments, review milestones, dependencies, risks, and submission requirements.

· Partner with Sales, Commercial, Solutions Consulting, Legal, Pricing, Product, Information Security, Compliance, Operations, and other subject matter experts to develop accurate, complete, and differentiated responses.

· Drive stakeholder accountability throughout the bid, ensuring contributors understand what is required, provide high-quality material, and meet agreed deadlines.

· Develop win themes, key messages, executive summaries, and tailored proposal content that clearly articulates the Worldpay value proposition and positions Worldpay as the partner of choice.

· Write, edit, and refine responses so complex technical, operational, security, legal, and commercial information is clear, persuasive, client-focused, and consistent across the full submission.

· Interpret tender instructions and complex compliance requirements, maintain a clear compliance view, and ensure all questions, attachments, approvals, and deliverables are addressed before submission.

· Lead kickoffs, working sessions, status calls, and structured reviews, escalating gaps, missed commitments, and decisions that may affect proposal quality or timely delivery.

· Ensure proposals follow Worldpay’s tone of voice, copy guidelines, brand standards, and agreed response strategy while remaining clearly tailored to the prospective or existing client.

· Capture lessons learned, reusable content, and process improvements from completed pursuits to strengthen future bids and help the Enterprise RFP Team work more effectively.

What you’ll bring

· 5+ years of experience developing and managing successful proposals, with direct responsibility for complex enterprise bids through final submission.

· Proven experience managing the full proposal lifecycle, including qualification, compliance management, response planning, stakeholder engagement, proposal writing, reviews, production, and submission.

· Hands-on experience with Loopio or comparable proposal management software, with the ability to use the platform to manage assignments, collaborate on responses, track progress, and support proposal delivery.

· Exceptional writing, editing, and storytelling skills, with the ability to convert complex subject matter into clear, persuasive, customer-facing content.

· Experience interpreting large corporate tenders containing multiple and complex instructions, schedules, attachments, and compliance requirements.

· Strong project and stakeholder management skills, with the determination to coordinate cross-functional teams, influence without direct authority, and hold contributors to agreed deliverables and timelines.

· Strategic thinking and the ability to connect customer priorities, evaluation criteria, competitive context, and Worldpay’s products, roadmap, mission, and values into a differentiated proposal.

· Professional-level written and spoken English, with excellent communication skills for executive, management, technical, and non-technical audiences.

· Excellent organization, problem-solving, and time-management skills, including the ability to manage multiple deadlines, adapt quickly, and maintain quality under pressure.

· A self-motivated, detail-oriented approach and a commitment to collaboration, accuracy, accountability, and high-quality outcomes.

It’s a bonus if you have

· Experience managing strategic enterprise RFPs in payments, fintech, financial services, SaaS, or another complex B2B environment.

· Knowledge of payment processing, information security, compliance, regulatory, legal, pricing, or operational topics commonly addressed in enterprise proposals.

· Experience developing win themes and discriminators for Financial Services or Payments proposals.

· Experience with Salesforce and Microsoft collaboration tools.

· A ‘win as one team’ mindset, building inclusive partnerships across functions, sharing knowledge openly, and staying determined to achieve the best outcome for the client and the business.
