Bid Manager - #2133171

Up to £75,000 Company Car or £5,200 Car Allowance Benefits

We currently have an exceptional opportunity for someone who has a strong background in Bid Management and wants to take ownership of major tenders across the social housing sector.

You’ll take ownership of the bid process, working with teams across the business to develop strong, well thought-out submissions that give the business the best possible chance of winning.

You'll be involved from the early stages of an opportunity through to final submission, including:

• Managing the full bid process from tender release through to submission

• Developing the overall bid strategy and win themes

• Leading bid kick-off meetings and coordinating the wider bid team

• Working closely with operational, commercial and technical teams to develop solutions

• Writing and reviewing key sections of tender submissions

• Managing SQ/PQQ and framework submissions

• Working on complex public sector procurement exercises and competitive dialogue

• Challenging and improving responses to make sure they are commercially focused and genuinely answer the client's requirements

• Managing deadlines, reviews and governance throughout the bid

• Working closely with senior stakeholders across the business

• Supporting wider strategic work-winning activity

You'll ideally have a strong background in social housing or public sector, with proven experience of managing complex tenders.

I'm particularly interested in people who have worked on one or more of the following:

• Social housing contracts

• Local authority or housing association frameworks

• Responsive or planned maintenance

• Refurbishment programmes

• Retrofit / decarbonisation

• Public sector procurement

• Large and complex tenders

You should be comfortable working on larger-value opportunities and dealing with senior stakeholders across operations, commercial and technical functions.

If you're an experienced Bid Manager or Senior Bid Writer with a background in social housing, property services, construction or the public sector and you're looking for your next move, I'd be keen to speak with you.
