6 months ago
**Job Types**:Full-time, Permanent
**Salary**: Starting at £25,000 per annum (increasing to £30,000 after 6-months, currently rising to £45,000) (£35,000 achievable within 18-months), plus performance related bonuses of up to £6,000 p.a. from the outset. Details of our pay bands and incremental scale will be share during the recruitment process.
**About us**
Every day in the UK, bodies such as local councils, government departments and housing associations procure goods and services through the competitive tender process. This process requires organisations to create written bids (proposals), responding to various questions about their proposed approaches, in order to be awarded a contract.
Executive Compass is an independent bid writing company which exists to support these organisations to write high-quality, detailed, and persuasive proposals and maximise their likelihood of success. Based in Newcastle upon Tyne but supporting organisations across the whole of the UK, we now have a vacancy for up to six graduate/trainee bid writers to join our team. Full training will be provided to support the successful applicant(s) to develop into skilled and knowledgeable bid writing professionals.
In the past 13 years we have developed a highly effective graduate training scheme with intensive support and full training provided, allowing you to develop at your own pace. Our trainee roles will give you experience of working on live bids and the opportunity to work alongside other graduates as part of a professional team. Once your first two-years are completed with us, you would then join our career pathway, meeting your bespoke development needs for your preferred progression route.
**Working arrangements**
As a trainee/graduate bid writer, you will work as part of our team either remotely from home (using a high-spec company PC and up to three flat-screen monitors - all provided and delivered to you) or at our Hoults Yard office in Newcastle Upon Tyne, with hybrid flexible working arrangements always considered.
Currently, around half our team of 30 work remotely and half are office-based in Newcastle. Those working at home have frequent and regular interaction with the team including a daily morning meeting and periodic office visits. With the attractive North East region offering relatively low living costs, access to the Northumberland coastline and countryside, members of our team include students wanting to stay in the area and others who have chosen to relocate.
We offer relocation assistance should you wish take advantage of working and living in the Newcastle area with it many restaurants, sporting facilities, and thriving arts, cultural, and social scene. Further, we provide free parking, access to private healthcare, and our office is handily placed within walking distance of the local Metro train service and the city centre.
**The role**
You will receive one-to-one training covering methods for researching specification and preparing storyboards and answer-plans; how to deconstruct questions; persuasive, evidence based writing styles; and advanced writing techniques to develop you into a professional writer.
Once qualified, your primary role will be to write persuasive, compelling and detailed responses to tender questions on behalf of our clients, all of whom are organisations submitting bids (proposals) to various buyers.
To do so, you will be supported to gather high-quality information from the client, as well as undertaking your own research. Once trained and confident, you will provide end-to-end support, managing the whole process on behalf of the client and guiding them through the process.
We work in a very fast-paced environment and, once fully trained, you will be writing multiple bids concurrently whilst simultaneously managing clients and their expectations. The role therefore requires you to be hardworking with excellent attention to detail, as well as an ability to work independently and manage your own workload, but support is always available via the team of fellow bid writers and managers. Some work outside of typical office hours may occasionally be required.
**Main duties**
Main duties for the role include:
- Creating business-winning written responses that support the client to maximise their likelihood of success
- Project managing the process from end-to-end on your own initiative, ensuring that submission deadlines are always met
- Speaking with clients and helping to manage client relationships
- Helping to maintain bid libraries (records of documentation relevant to each client)
In line with your development (typically within six months to two years), opportunities will be made available to incorporate additional duties, such as:
- Becoming a specialist bid writer in a chosen field; current team members specialise in health and social care, construction, property services and other disciplines
- Supporting with internal quality assurance checks
