Are you an experienced Bid Manager ready to drive success on some of the UK's most exciting construction projects?
Do you have the strategic vision and leadership skills to coordinate complex bid submissions and position your organisation for winning outcomes?
Im supporting my client and seeking an experienced and talented Bid Manager to oversee bids at all stages for construction contracts across a diverse range of sectors. You'll manage and coordinate input from your bid team of construction professionals to create and present high-quality bidding documents.
You'll be responsible for submitting completed bids to existing and prospective customers, developing strategy with your bid team around cost, programme and logistics, whilst ensuring every question is answered comprehensively. Your focus will be on positioning your organisation with the best possible chance of success.
Leading and managing the PCSA stage of projects through to final contract agreement, you'll establish winning strategies, implement writing plans for quality lead bids, and coordinate the handover to delivery teams. You'll leverage your understanding of the overall business to project benefits to customers through compelling proposals, whilst delivering commercial, programme and risk management strategies.
Who are you?
You'll be educated to HND and/or degree level, with a proven track record of winning profitable work in preconstruction environments. Your experience should include a strong understanding of design and tendering processes, along with excellent management of the PCSA period.
You have the ability to research projects and clients, demonstrating a clear understanding of key drivers and effectively communicating your organisation's differentiators and approach. You're competent across multiple software platforms including Microsoft Office, InDesign, Adobe Creative Suite, or equivalent.
A full UK driving licence is essential for this role.
Why join my client?
You'll become part of a growing, dynamic team of people who are passionate about construction and thrive on the challenge and pace of the industry. Every day brings something different in a hardworking, fun environment where excellence is celebrated.
They pride themselves on their inclusive, supportive and team-focused culture. They place enormous trust in their people—you'll know what's expected of you and you'll be committed to delivering both individually and as part of the team. They have longstanding, committed relationships with their supply chain partners and extend this collaborative approach to their employees.
They're committed to developing and promoting talented people who share their sense of dedication. Their strength lies in their people—their skills, knowledge and integrity keep them at the forefront of the industry. If you're looking to further your career in an inclusive and supportive environment, I would love to hear from you.
