Description
Join Leidos & work on AGO GEO SPACES mission-critical networks!
A role with genuine influence across commercial and delivery outcomes.
NV-1 clearance and DISA required, located in Canberra.
Our team feel Leidos is a great place to work. Learn more about our culture and benefits by visiting us here https://www.leidos.com/company/global/australia/careers
Do Work That Matters
Leidos Australia delivers IT and airborne solutions that protect and advance the Australian way of life. Our 2000 local experts, backed by our global experience and network of partners, are working to solve the world’s toughest challenges in government, intelligence, defence, aviation, border protection and health markets.
Your New Role and Responsibilities
We are seeking an experienced Business & Proposal Manager to lead the Survey and Quote (S&Q) function within a complex ICT program in the Defence sector.
This is a high‑impact, hybrid role combining proposal leadership with project delivery accountability. You will be the focal point for customer Requests for Quote (RFQs), shaping compliant, compelling responses — and then transitioning seamlessly into delivery leadership once authority to operate is granted.
If you thrive at the intersection of commercial acumen, stakeholder engagement and disciplined project execution, this role offers real ownership and influence across the full lifecycle of customer engagements.
Key Responsibilities include:
Own the end-to-end Survey & Quote process, acting as the single point of accountability for RFQs from receipt to submission.
Coordinate cross-functional inputs (engineering, architecture, commercial, security, delivery) to produce compliant, costed proposals.
Ensure estimates, schedules, risks, and assumptions are clearly defined and aligned with contractual and governance requirements.
Lead internal reviews and governance to deliver high-quality, auditable submissions.
Transition approved proposals into delivery by establishing plans, resourcing, schedules, and controls.
Manage delivery execution, risks, and stakeholder engagement to ensure outcomes meet scope, cost, schedule, and quality expectations.
What You’ll Bring to Make An Impact
Demonstrated experience in Proposal Management, Bid Management or Survey & Quote leadership within ICT or Defence environments.
Proven capability in project managing approved work, ideally within governed Defence or government programs.
Strong commercial awareness, including estimating, costing, risk and assumption management.
Experience working within structured governance frameworks and gated approval processes.
Ability to lead multidisciplinary teams without formal line authority.
Exceptional written and verbal communication skills, with the confidence to engage senior stakeholders.
Don’t worry if you don’t tick all the boxes – if you meet most of them, we encourage you to submit your application. We’re most interested in your strengths, what you want to learn and how far you want to go.
This role does requires the successful applicant to be an Australian Citizen and hold an active NV-1 Clearance, accompanied by the ability to be successful for a DISA.
