    Description

    Role Overview

    Our Public Sector offering is expanding rapidly and we have big ambitions to grow the business. We have recently been appointed onto multiple Public Sector frameworks including Crown Commercial Service's RM6168 and we are experiencing high levels of growth in this area. With clients ranging from local government, through to NHS healthcare and transport infrastructure, no two tenders are the same. Savills is looking for a tenacious Associate Director Bid Manager to play a key strategic role in our team of advisors. Part of this role, based in our London Head Office, will be to work with our Head of Public Sector Bids, Head of Public Sector and the wider Public Sector team. This will be to support our coverage in sectors of focus such as government, healthcare and education.

    Key Responsibilities

    We need someone who will be process driven with high attention to detail.

    This is especially important with the strong compliance focus and procurement led Public Sector bids. You will be able to lead in the delivery and implementation of new ideas and champion latest industry thinking. You will build client relationships and propel senior teams forward in their understanding of the buyer lifecycle plus its critical role in securing and keeping good business.

    Your role will maintain a focus on compliant bidding, both guiding and educating teams in winning Public Sector opportunities. You will be responsible for encouraging business winning behaviours across the business.

    We know you will be able to deliver successful bids from inception to submission. You will also need a deep appreciation for the thought leadership that surrounds bid delivery and be comfortable to lead initiatives that encourage our team to do their very best work. Alongside this awareness and an understanding of key topics and market trends in the Public Sector will be essential.

    Key Skills


    • Knowledge and experience in successful bid delivery to Public Sector organisations, with exposure to leading bids that are multidisciplinary and across a range of geographies;
    • Strong knowledge of procurement with understanding of legislation, trends in the market, portals, procurement rules and compliance requirements of Public Sector tenders;
    • Understanding of strategic pricing, especially when dealing with hourly and daily rates;
    • Experience of coaching, training and influencing senior stakeholders and other bid professionals; and
    • A proven ability to manage multiple projects at a time with implementation of winning bid strategies, prioritise and deliver timely outcomes.


    • An excellent communicator who is able to quickly build rapport with stakeholders at all levels within the business in order to coach, influence and facilitate wider strategic conversations;
    • Confident in managing challenging conversations and moulding positive outcomes through discussions;
    • Highly organised, proactively driving strategic projects forward in a structured, timely way;
    • Solutions-focused; remaining calm under pressure in order to make effective leadership decisions; and
    • A driver of operational best practice, enhancing the offering our team provide to the wider business.

    You will be affiliated with industry bodies. This will help to share, challenge and develop ideas into company business plans. Also the ideal candidate for this level would have achieved APMP Foundation level or be working towards it.

    Team OverviewThis is no ordinary team, and this is no ordinary role. In 2023, Savills was shortlisted in every category at the APMP UK Awards. Notably, we have won the Industry Innovation Award for the past two years. In 2021, we won the award for Contribution to the Profession and in 2020 for Bid Team of the Year. We are driven, passionate and thought leaders in our field, positioned as strategic advisers alongside the internal clients we collaborate with. We are unified by a common goal; to pursue and win the most profitable new business with Savills clients through our strategic bid leadership, in order to protect Savills growth and market position. Your role will be supported by c.30 professionals, including our UK Bids, EMEA Bids, Design and Knowledge Hub teams. Alongside this, your role will form part of our specialist Public Sector division.
