Writes the RFP, collects bids and scores them. The work is too small to justify a hire and too important to leave to chance. It is a nonprofit, so budgets are tight and grant reporting dates are fixed. The company prefers a person who can come to Manchester for kickoff and the final review; the rest is remote. Most people do this on weekday evenings; replies inside the working day are not expected. About 1 hour a week should overlap with the team's day (UK time). ## What you deliver - Run an RFP for office IT support: requirements, bidder Q&A, scoring and recommendation. - One round of edits after the company's review is included - A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer - A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope ## How the work runs - Day 1: kickoff call and access to the files - Days 2 to 12: the work, with questions answered the same day - Last day: delivery and a short walkthrough **Duration:** 2 to 3 weeks. Accepted after the walkthrough. Edits requested within three working days are part of the price. ## Tools Coupa Excel Word ## Who fits - 5-10 years of hands-on work as a Procurement & Vendor Manager, or the equivalent mix of roles - Comfortable working in Coupa, Excel and Word - Your own work history stays private; the company sees a first name, your field and a rate ### Nice to have - Used to short written handovers - Has worked with a distributed team across time zones ## Not included - Anything that needs a signature in your own name unless the brief says so - Travel or work at a fixed location - On-call availability outside the agreed window ## How you get paid - The company prepays Deftridge before your first hour, so payment does not depend on a late invoice. - Deftridge pays you in GBP after the company confirms the hours or the deliverable.
