ABOUT BENITA SCHADER

At DAI, my role is to spearhead business development for economic growth initiatives funded by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO). I leverage my expertise in proposal writing and business relationship management to drive DAI\'s strategic bid development efforts. My team\'s approach focusses on consistently aligning with client needs, fostering robust partnerships and securing new opportunities for DAI\'s economic growth portfolio.With a rich background in coordinating multidisciplinary teams, I’ve honed a client-focused methodology to manage large-scale, complex proposal efforts. This involves meticulous research, crafting compelling key messages, and aligning our bids with the intricate policy frameworks of donor-funded projects. Our success is reflected in the numerous technical proposals we’ve delivered, resonating with our international development goals and the broader vision of DAI.I have led and contributed to the preparation of over 40 proposals for FCDO, the EU, GIZ, KFW and SDC, with a technical focus on economic growth, governance and social development. This includes developing competitive pricing strategies and commercial proposals in line with each individual donor\'s requirements, as well as quality assuring due diligence and compliance documentation.
