Role Overview

The Commercial Operations Manager owns a portfolio of new business opportunities end to end, from pitch through to contract, and begins to manage junior team members. This role blends process discipline with the creativity and client-facing confidence needed to lead pitches. This is a 15 month Fixed Term Contract.

Key Responsibilities

New business leadership

  • Own the bid lifecycle for assigned opportunities end to end, from initial opportunity assessment through to submission and post-bid debrief.
  • Lead selected pitch workstreams and RFI/RFP responses from brief through to submission, engaging specialist teams and international contacts where relevant.
  • Write and shape compelling, technically accurate proposal content, including executive summaries, management plans and case studies, that answers the brief and reflects current market context.
  • Lead pitch rehearsals and debriefs, setting the standard for how the team prepares and improves between opportunities.
  • Own the credentials and case study library for an assigned sector or client set, ensuring materials stay current and impactful.
  • Use the opportunity tracker and Synergist reporting to prioritise where time and resource are spent across the pipeline.

Commercial & contract negotiation

  • Collaborate on the negotiation of SOWs and work orders with clients, escalating MSA-level or high-risk terms to the Commercial Operations Director or legal counsel.
  • Review contracts for commercial red flags (termination, pass-through costs, payment terms, liability) and manage redlines with Commercial Operations Director and legal counsel.

Account growth

  • Support on service upsells for existing clients, working with delivery teams to scope any additional value Right Formula could add.
  • Develop and pitch new sponsorship opportunities for existing clients, including ideas flagged by Senior Commercial Operations Executives, taking them from concept through to client conversation.

Team & process

  • Mentor junior team members, reviewing their work and supporting their growth.
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of Right Formula's pitch process, templates and commercial documentation standards.

Skills & Experience Required

  • Proven experience running bids or pitches end to end, from opportunity assessment through submission to post-bid debrief.
  • Strong proposal writing skills, with the ability to produce clear, technically accurate content — executive summaries, management plans and case studies — that answers the brief.
  • Experience leading pitch workstreams and RFI/RFP responses, coordinating specialist and international contributors to deadline.
  • Commercial contract literacy: able to review SOWs and work orders, spot red flags around termination, pass-through costs, payment terms and liability, and know when to escalate to senior or legal counsel.
  • A track record of identifying and pitching upsell or new sponsorship opportunities within existing accounts, working with delivery teams to scope the value.
  • Confident client-facing presence, comfortable leading pitch rehearsals, debriefs and negotiation conversations.
  • Experience mentoring or reviewing the work of junior colleagues and getting the best out of specialist teams without formal authority.
  • Disciplined use of pipeline and reporting tools to prioritise time and resource across a portfolio of opportunities.
  • Organised and calm under pressure, holding standards through tight deadlines and late changes without passing stress down to the team.

Role Structure & Benefits

  • Hybrid working
  • Flexible hours with core working hours between 10am – 4pm
  • Discretionary bonus scheme
  • Gym & Retail Discounts
  • Enhanced Employer Pension contribution
  • Mental Wellbeing Day & Volunteer Day in addition to annual leave
  • Sabbatical Leave in conjunction with long-service
  • Employee Assistance Programme

After successfully passing probation:

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
