Birmingham, United Kingdom

A member of the Strategy and Growth Leadership Team for AECOM's Europe, Middle East, India and Africa region with responsibility for the creation and operation of a series of 'studios' as centres of excellence for the development, writing and production of major bids. Whilst the role required me to deploy my team so that they added the maximum value to AECOM's strategic submissions, my passion led to hands-on involvement and regularly taking the role of director, manager, writer, reviewer or interview coach on live bids.
