At BEUMER Group, I managed end-to-end bids for bulk material handling projects in Brazil, contributing to proposals that secured three new clients. I worked with Commercial Management and multidisciplinary teams on bid strategy, cost estimates, pricing, and customer negotiations.

Across mining and infrastructure projects in Brazil and Latin America, I’ve managed proposal lifecycles from opportunity qualification through submission and contract award. At FLSmidth, I managed the proposal process that secured the company’s first aftermarket contract for bulk material handling equipment with Vale in Brazil, and I’ve improved proposal workflows and governance to strengthen consistency and traceability.
