I have been impressed by the firm's growth across multiple sectors and geographies, and the great feedback from clients. I'm looking forward to bringing my expertise in over 10 years of bidding to the role, and to playing my part in growing the firm in the North of England and the wider UK.”

David Gray, Bid Development Director of AM Bid Services, said “This is a key new role for the business and I am delighted to welcome Chris to the team. Attracting a highly experienced senior bid professional like Chris demonstrates our commitment to achieving our growth ambitions, whilst continuing to ensure our clients receive an extremely high quality service. As our first employee based in England, where 50% of our clients are based, Chris will increase our capacity south of the border and be a key contact for our clients in England.”
