Working closely with our Directors, Head of Marketing & BD and other stakeholders, you will manage other people’s contributions to submission documents to ensure timely completion. As fast-paced as bid work often needs to be, we pride ourselves on being a friendly and approachable practice, where we support each other and inspire each other to do our best work.

**You will have excellent communication skills with an energetic and organised attitude and the ability to identify an appropriate core message and approach required for any bid.**

**Key responsibilities**:

- Identify and agree priorities for bids, competitions, and tenders

- Proactively advise on the improvement of internal systems that relate to our performance on bids. This includes reviewing collateral, improvements in our production methods, and how we decide which opportunities to pursue
- Maintain image and staff CV libraries and keep track of key information about our projects
- Report on wins and losses, tracking our progress and sharing this information with the Directors

**Key skills and experience required**:

- Minimum 2 years’ experience as a bid writer and coordinating bids
