Job description
At Alstom, we understand transport networks and what moves people. From high-speed trains, metros, monorails, and trams, to turnkey systems, services, infrastructure, signalling, and digital mobility, we offer our diverse customers the broadest portfolio in the industry. Every day, 80,000 colleagues lead the way to greener and smarter mobility worldwide, connecting cities as we reduce carbon and replace cars.

Your future role

Take on a new challenge and apply your expertise in tender management and strategic coordination in a cutting-edge field. You'll work alongside collaborative and dynamic teammates.

You'll play a key role in driving the success of tendering activities by ensuring alignment with Alstom's business objectives and customer needs. Day-to-day, you'll work closely with cross-functional teams, including Tender Leaders, Sub-System Bid Managers, and support functions, while managing budgets, schedules, and compliance efforts, and much more.

You'll specifically take care of coordinating internal activities to understand customer needs and promoting Alstom's portfolio, but also ensure the preparation and submission of comprehensive tender documentation.

We'll look to you for:

  • Coordinating pre-tendering activities to identify and influence customer specifications
  • Ensuring compliance with Alstom's rules, including ethics, safety, and quality standards
  • Collaborating with Tender Leaders to define bid strategies and operational plans
  • Managing tender teams and ensuring alignment with project objectives
  • Preparing and issuing Instructions for Quotations (IFQ) and compliance matrices
  • Optimizing Quality, Cost, and Delivery (QCD) targets and mitigating risks
  • Preparing customer-facing documentation, including technical descriptions and schedules
  • Maintaining traceable records of tender documentation and supporting contract negotiations
  • Contributing to continuous improvement through Win-Loss Analysis and lessons learned

All About You

We value passion and attitude over experience. That's why we don't expect you to have every single skill. Instead, we've listed some that we think will help you succeed and grow in this role:

  • A degree in Engineering, Business, or a related field
  • Experience or understanding of tendering processes and project management
  • Knowledge of compliance standards, including quality and safety regulations
  • Familiarity with budgeting, risk management, and operational strategies
  • A Project Management certification (e.g., PMP or PRINCE2) is a plus
  • Strong analytical and organizational skills
  • Excellent communication and stakeholder management abilities

Things you'll enjoy Join us on a life-long transformative journey – the rail industry is here to stay, so you can grow and develop new skills and experiences throughout your career. You'll also:

  • Enjoy stability, challenges, and a long-term career free from boring daily routines
  • Work with new security standards for rail signalling
  • Collaborate with transverse teams and helpful colleagues
  • Contribute to innovative projects
  • Utilise our flexible and inclusive working environment
  • Steer your career in whatever direction you choose across functions and countries
  • Benefit from our investment in your development, through award-winning learning
  • Progress towards senior leadership roles in tender management or project delivery
  • Benefit from a fair and dynamic reward package that recognises your performance and potential, plus comprehensive and competitive social coverage (life, medical, pension)

You don't need to be a train enthusiast to thrive with us. We guarantee that when you step onto one of our trains with your friends or family, you'll be proud. If you're up for the challenge, we'd love to hear from you!
