Tafadzwa Takuba

I’m a detail-oriented, highly organised Project & Operations Assistant with experience supporting project managers and cross-functional teams across engineering, design, and fitness environments. I’m at my best turning complex requirements into accurate, complete documentation and keeping moving parts on schedule.

In my current role with BERNARD Gruppe ZT GmbH, I coordinate and prepare tender and bid application documents across multiple engineering divisions, including traffic systems, tunnelling, geotechnics, and rail. I analyse tender requirements, liaise with sales and project management, and organise pre-submission review meetings to verify document accuracy and close gaps before submission. I also manage submission deadlines and support the full tender lifecycle through final submission, producing CVs, project references, and supporting documentation for awarded contracts.

I manage project records in Microsoft Dynamics CRM and keep Navision updated with project data, including generating project numbers for new enquiries. I monitor the CRM leads pipeline, ensure project managers complete evaluations within required timeframes, and maintain stakeholder-facing project status reports tracking won, lost, and active projects. I also provide office administration coverage, including correspondence, scheduling, and internal coordination.

Before this, I deputised as Fitness Instructor & Deputy Studio Manager, overseeing a team of 10–12 staff with scheduling, delegation, onboarding, and operational communication. I designed and delivered group fitness classes, built wellness and yoga programme concepts with supporting course materials, and handled backoffice operations like appointment management and internal process optimisation. Earlier experience in volunteer administration and junior communication design strengthened my document production discipline and organisational rigor, and I’m fully prepared to deliver remotely with independent, time-zone-aware output.
