As a Senior Tender Manager, you are the driving force behind our most complex and integrated civil engineering tenders – from ecoducts and wastewater systems to high-voltage routes and new industrial construction projects. We play a prominent role in the energy transition through long-term collaboration with TenneT and Alliander. Additionally, we work for provinces, the G40 municipalities, and private clients. Alongside technical and substantive knowledge, the common thread is always ‘Predictable Organizing’.

You take charge of the entire tender process: you dive into the client's requirements, determine a smart and distinctive course, and together with your project team, translate this into a convincing and winning plan of approach. We have a national focus where tender teams are formed based on necessary expertise on one hand, but where travel distance and your own preferences are also taken into account. The scale of the projects lies between 5 and 100 million, and we are always actively looking for projects in which we tackle the challenge together with the client. These are construction teams, multi-year collaborations, and other forms in which cooperation forms an important part of the success.

Additionally, you play an active role in further developing a future-proof Tender Management and Procurement department. You follow (market) developments closely and think strategically about the direction of our project portfolio, making well-considered choices together with your fellow Tender Managers regarding the projects we focus on as an organization. Both in the short and long term.

• You are responsible for the full tender process: from analyzing the client's requirements and determining the strategy to the submission of the bid and the smooth handover to the execution team.
• You translate the client's needs into a smart strategy that leads to a complete and distinctive bid – on time, within budget, and with a strong chance of being awarded.
• You lead and motivate a multidisciplinary project team and ensure focus, collaboration, and energy in the tender process;
• You present the tender strategy to the management team and the group directorate, including opportunities, risks, and contractual impact (both at the beginning and the end of the tender process);
• You actively follow market developments and anticipate upcoming tenders and client needs;
• You contribute to the development of the Tender Management and Procurement department and are given the space to help build the strategy, structure, and the right composition of the team.

At Strukton Civiel NL, we build infrastructural solutions with lasting social impact. We innovate, look ahead, and realize projects that you, as a professional, can look back on with pride.

Will you help build the future of Strukton Civiel Nederland as a Senior Tender Manager?

As a natural leader and strategic sparring partner, you combine substantive authority with the ability to connect. You know how to inspire multidisciplinary teams, keep them sharp, and steer them toward the best result. You possess a strong commercial sense: you not only formulate an ironclad vision but also know how to present it with conviction, both to our Group Directorate and to the client.

Thanks to your analytical sharpness and client-oriented view, you effortlessly grasp the core and the latent demand behind the request, and translate this into a winning proposition. You organize the process tightly and structurally, maintain calm under pressure, and dare to make decisions where necessary. In the dynamics of large tenders, you show resilience and agility: with a constructive and critical eye, you guide the team through learning moments and recharge them for the next winning bid. Crucial to this is your connection to practice; you continuously gather knowledge from execution to ensure that what we promise can also be truly realized in a predictable manner.
