@VikipediaDotOrg Inbox 3,744. Didn’t quite make it. Well done you.

@VikipediaDotOrg I wonder what the average annual mileage is for a bid professional? My UK travel is cica 40,000 miles per year; I won’t begin to calculate it for flights to overseas bid teams. Carbon neutral?

I’m recruiting: bid managers, bid writers, bid coordinators and a bid graphic designer. Permanent and contractor roles. Location likely to be Bristol and/or Portsmouth. Contact me direct for info and keep an eye on the Babcock website to apply for permanent roles.

Looks like we proposal specialists are best placed to exploit ‘the hottest new skill in business’. Get crafting those stories! https://t.co/wCVGRN3RDu
