Description

Your new role:

We have a fantastic opportunity for an experienced
Bid Coordinator to join our growing work winning team managing a variety of bids, but with a core focus on the Rail sector.

We offer a competitive salary and a modern approach to work/life balance, with flexible working arrangements to suit you and opportunities to work both remotely and in an office environment as appropriate throughout the bid lifecycle.

Bids will vary in size and scale with typical values from £50m-£500m.

This is a fantastic opportunity to progress your career in bidding in a structured environment, with talent management and succession planning built in.

The standard hours of work are 37.5 hours

Work-life balance and flexibility are key for our success. We empower our people to make choices that are right for them, with hybrid, part-time and flexible work patterns. And with a network of offices across the UK, we're open to discussing working options that suit you.

In this role you will:

Work on bids under the guidance of a Bid Director, Principal Bid Manager or Bid Manager, supporting all activities required through to completion.
Sett up and manage the bid platform/site/folders to be consistent, well laid out and easy to navigate (e.g. in SharePoint).
Be fully familiar with the client bid portal to include timely downloading of client documents, tender amendments and clarifications, and uploading of our submissions and clarification questions/responses.
Collaborate and supply guidance to our bid partners, supply partners and subcontractors, who are contributing to the bid opportunities.
Manage the meeting calendar, setting up meetings as required by the bid programme.
Analyse client requirements including compliance and scoring.
Help to identify win themes and story boarding to shape the content of responses.
Set up and manage the schedule of deliverables and, through the Leaderboard process, track progress and identify problems; escalate to Bid Manager (or Principal Bid Manager/Bid Director as appropriate) for resolution as necessary.
Collate statutory, mandatory information and certification for PQQ's where this is required by our clients.
Implement and maintain document management and version control of bid documents.
Set up and manage the tender query process during the bid and the client clarification process, post bid.
Design and prepare templates, organisation charts, CVs and graphics for smaller bids to include formatting and production of final submission.

We want to hear from you if you have:

Experience of successful bidding, ideally in a related rail/highways sector (1-2 years' experience minimum). However, this role is also suited to a junior project manager who wants to transfer their skills into the bidding environment.
Experience of the bid process.
Experience of public sector bid requirements.
Development of knowledge libraries as a source of information for future bid activity.
Creative, with an enquiring mind.

In addition to this, it would be desirable if you have rail experience to help you hit the ground running, although this is not essential as we will provide you with the required development you need to bring you up to speed.

What we offer you:

When you join us, we can offer flexibility, career development, a choice of benefits and support that help you through all life's ups and downs.
