    Description
    Role Bid Writer.
    We are currently looking for an experienced Bid Writer to complement and support our strong pre-construction team.

    The role will be based in their Ipswich office, although with agile working there will be an opportunity to work partly from the office or from home, or from one of our other offices (location permitting, at the discretion of the line manager).

    The successful candidate will be joining one of the largest family run construction businesses dealing with a diverse range of interesting and challenging projects across multiple sectors.

    For this role you will need to be ambitious, self-motivated, resourceful and able to work within our team of like-minded individuals.
