About
I am an independent bid consultant with six years' experience producing winning bids and tenders, both in-house and on a consultancy basis.
Based in North West England, I like to become part of my client's team and can work either remotely or within your premises. I don't take a 'cookie cutter', cut and paste approach to bid writing - instead I aim to really understand what drives your business and get under the skin of the company. I then translate this understanding into your bid submissions to communicate what you do and, more importantly, how you do it.
In addition to my bid consultancy I also own and run a design studio, Pickard Design. I bring creativity, new ideas and a healthy dose of challenge and critique to all my work.
