London UK, UK, United Kingdom Willmott Dixon Interiors Full time

We are seeking a Proposals Manager to join our bid submissions team in London who will support our commitment to great customer service, exceptional quality and embrace our company values.

We understand the importance of work-life balance and recognize the benefits of a flexible work environment. The hybrid work pattern we offer allows you to work both in the office and remotely, ensuring a healthy blend of collaboration and autonomy. Approximately 60% of your time will be spent in the office.


The main role of a Proposals Manager at Willmott Dixon Interiors is to lead the development of quality submissions and actively work with our project managers to enhance the quality of bids. You will be able to assess technical bid requirements and assist the project manager to shape our proposals. You will ensure the formal bid process is followed, providing recommendations for continuous improvement.


Through your review and editing of drafts you will ensure the writing structure and words used in the bid persuasively conveys our offer to the customer. Working with subject matter experts, you will conceptualise and create visual elements to help tell the story. With an awareness of bidding best practice, you will also provide guidance to less experienced staff and those from other areas of the business.


You’ll also support creation of clear and effective customer presentations and provide creative ideas and initiatives for bids.


You should ideally have some experience as a Bid Writer, Bid Editor, Bid Coordinator or similar role. You will be able to lead the creation of our written responses to achieve high quality, winning bids/submissions that meet our company objectives. You will have good experience of writing and editing tender submissions. Knowledge and experience of the Adobe Suite, particularly InDesign is desirable, but full training will be provided if required.


  • Experience of facilitating answer plan sessions, win theme workshops and managing the tender review process
  • Experience of bid writing and bid editing, creating compelling and persuasive responses
  • Excellent resource planning skills
  • Experience of using Microsoft Office
  • Use of Adobe Indesign and Photoshop.


What you’ll bring to the role:

  • Strategic, customer-focused thinking: Ability to identify key value propositions, competitive advantages and differentiators that help us stand out in the competitive bidding process, with the customer at the heart of every proposal.
  • Creativity and writing: Crafting compelling narratives and persuasive proposals is a central aspect of the job; you’ll take pride in effectively communicating our response to customer needs through well written, engaging proposal content.
  • Problem solving: It’s usual to encounter complex challenges during the proposal development process, such as aligning diverse ideas from multiple stakeholders, addressing technical complexities or mitigating risks. You’ll enjoy the problem-solving aspect of this role, finding solutions that meet both customer requirements and internal needs, then sharing any learning with the team and wider business.
  • Leadership and teamwork: Our Proposals Managers work closely with cross-functional teams, including estimators, designers, engineers and subject matter experts. You’ll enjoy collaborating with diverse professionals, leveraging their expertise and fostering teamwork to develop comprehensive and well-rounded proposals, while providing the team with positive leadership throughout the bid process.
  • Bidding best practice: With a passion for ensuring bidding best practice on every proposal, you’ll have extensive experience of storyboarding (answer planning), drafting, peer reviews, formatting and submission, and onto lessons learned and feedback analysis.
  • Desire to learn: Our industry is dynamic and ever-evolving, with new technologies, methods, and trends emerging constantly. You’ll enjoy staying updated on industry developments, learning about new innovations and implementing best practices to enhance the proposal development process.


Values that we live by and would hope you do too – Courage, Openness and Respect for everyone (COR).
