Sulzer is a leading engineering company with a proud heritage of innovation. Join our global team to grow your expertise and develop innovative solutions that enable a prosperous and more sustainable society.
Ireland’s essential water and industrial infrastructure rely on the expertise and responsiveness of Sulzer’s service teams. As our Irish business continues to grow, we’re strengthening our commercial and technical capability with a newly created Tendering Engineer role—sitting at the centre of proposal development, technical evaluation, and securing future work across our service and aftermarket operations. This is your opportunity to become a key link between engineering, customers, and suppliers, helping shape technically sound and commercially competitive solutions.
Working in a blended model (office, home, and site/customer visits) and based in either Dublin or Wexford, you will take ownership of the full tendering lifecycle. This will include reviewing customer requirements, carrying out technical assessments (including pump selection and sizing), building accurate costings, and coordinating with internal teams and external suppliers to develop high-quality proposals. As demand continues to grow and with evolving customer needs, this role is critical in supporting business expansion, securing new opportunities, and ensuring we maintain a strong technical and commercial offering across Ireland.
