From Reactive to Remarkable: The Strategic Rise of Bids

As the business landscape evolves, so too does the role of the bids team. This event highlights how the most forward-thinking teams are becoming strategic storytellers, award-winners, and champions of client-first thinking.

The fireside panel will explore the team’s transformation, fuelled by investment and a bold shift in mindset, now operating as a proactive engine of growth. The speakers will discuss a non-traditional, high-impact strategy that blends storytelling, design, and strategic insight to craft immersive bid experiences.

Expect candid insights, real stories, and live examples that bring our journey to life. Whether you’re in bids, business development, marketing, or client services, you’ll find ideas, inspiration, and practical takeaways that resonate across the professional services landscape. It’s not just about what we’ve done – it’s about how we did it, and what’s possible next.

The panel’s chair, Jill Want (Head of Bids, Europe and Middle East) will be joined by Ellie Blenkinsop (Head of Client Growth), Sarah-Beth Money (Head of UK Bids) and Josh Read (Creative Lead).
