Meet Cameron
Current Role: Bid Administrator
Joined TerraQuest: In October 2018
I work as a Bid Administrator at TerraQuest, my main responsibilities are to administrate and co-ordinate all bids. This includes setting up and holding bid review meetings, setting up the relevant company folders/structures, and following the agreed company bidding process. I also do a lot of work behind the scenes for finding bids, I am constantly researching and going through many different procurement portals and frameworks, searching for relevant opportunities.
The way I got to the position I am in today is through an apprenticeship at TerraQuest, I started only a few months after finishing school doing a Business Administration NVQ. This enabled me to gain experience in all different parts of the business development team, whether that be sales and/or marketing, I was helping in all different ways. For example, taking part in email/phone call campaigns and managing the Google Ads for the business.
I now am a fully Qualified Bid and proposal coordinator.
