Tender Manager in Utrecht

Dura Vermeer Assetmanagement is growing and you can play a key role in this! As tender leader asset management, you translate the challenges of clients into strong proposals for the management and maintenance of infrastructure. You bring the right people together, determine the tender strategy, and steer the course from the initial request to the final submission. In this way, you help us win contracts that match our ambitions.

As a tender leader at Dura Vermeer Assetmanagement, you lead tender and quotation processes. You fathom the client's request, identify opportunities, and map out risks. Together with the tender team, you translate these insights into a distinctive, feasible, and competitive proposal.

You monitor the planning, the budget, and the quality of the submission. You distribute responsibilities, maintain an overview, and ensure that decisions are made on time. In doing so, you connect the technical content, the approach, and the price into one coherent proposal. You challenge colleagues to look further and make sharp choices together: how do we add value for the client and how do we deliver on that?

Within the Procurement team, you work closely with, among others, a cost expert, EMVI coordinator, and tender managers. For the substantive elaboration, you involve specialists from Operations and the Digital Measurement and Inspection division. Together, you investigate how data, digitalization, and smart maintenance strategies contribute to reliable and sustainable infrastructure.

You also keep an eye on execution from the very beginning. You ensure that our proposal aligns with what we can realize in the field and, upon award, contribute to a clear handover to the project team. You use experiences from previous tenders and ongoing contracts to continually improve our approach.
