The Team
You will join DDN’s Integral Centre of Excellence, a high-impact strategic function within the Value Engineering organisation.
Our mission is to help DDN win complex, high-value opportunities by equipping our field teams with the strategy, content, insights, and tools they need to stand out in competitive sales cycles.
In this role, you will have a particular focus on building an AI-driven function to drive strategic RFPs and RFIs. You will work closely with Account Teams (including Solution Engineers & Sales), Product, and other cross-functional partners to turn complex customer requirements into compelling, differentiated proposals that clearly articulate the value of DDN’s solutions.
This is a role for someone who combines pre-sales, proposal expertise, commercial judgement, technical curiosity, and a builder mindset. You will not simply manage an established RFP process; you will re-architect from the ground up to make it smarter, faster, and more scalable through automation and AI.

Proposal Strategy: Go beyond coordinating content. Help shape the overall response strategy, including win themes, executive messaging, competitive positioning, customer-specific proof points, and responses to high-priority requirements.
Cross-Functional Orchestration: Bring together contributors across Sales, Solution Engineering, Product, Marketing, and other subject-matter teams. Keep stakeholders aligned and ensure
