At Biffa, we love working with waste.

- Working with the Head of Business Development to develop ongoing improvements to the standard bid submission template.
- Working within the bid writing cohort to maintain a library of model answers, relevant excerpts, quotations and case studies relevant to all aspects of the Municipal business’s services
- Attending regional meetings to keep up to date with existing contracts; identify development opportunities; and develop working relationships with Regional and Business Managers

**Requirements**:
**Here’s what we require**:

- Educated to Degree Level or equivalent
- Working in a tendering, bidding or pricing environment
- Bid writing, marketing, technical writing
