    I would forget about looking for technical roles and try to work on roles where you can use the skills above. Try to emphasise these skills as your main selling point (use some real examples from your business to back it up). A lot of contractors do not have these skills. There certainly are companies out there looking for help with bids and selling, often as their permanent staff are too busy with fee-earning work to tend to their sales pipeline, but I've no idea what the competition for these roles is like.
