    Description


    We are recruiting a Bid manager to join a national contractor based from their regional hub in Cambridge to work on a number of specific schemes with future opportunities in the wider Northern Home Counties patch.


    They have exceeded all their targets and budgets for 2024/5 and have secured pipelines of work for 2025/26 and due to the volume of opportunities are looking to increase their preconstruction team and focus on specific bids.

    They target both framework opportunities and are secured on several including DFE, SCF, MOD and local authority frameworks and also work with repeat business clients and negotiate directly on bids in the commercial education, health, care, and leisure marketplaces but do not do single stage high risk developments and target projects valued between £30 and £120 million


    They have an excellent preconstruction team consisting of bid managers, estimators, design team, building services and commercial experts who form a team for each bid and work as a team to achieve the best possible results.


    Duties as a Bid Manager include Develop strategy and decide if compliant tender is feasible If desirable, produce non-compliant tender or alternative proposal in parallel.

    Produce & monitor Bid Programme, Response Tracker and Budget Communicate requirements to bid team, Ensure timely submission in required format, Provide technical and operational input to the proposed technical solution.

    Identify all project risks and mitigate as appropriate.
    Write, contribute to or review technical and SHESQ responses. Ensure the submission complies with the tender requirements.
    Agree estimating strategy with the Estimator or Estimating Manager. Lead procurement of designers, subcontractors and suppliers Chair meetings and interviews with prospective partners on critical packages. Agree Project Programme Strategy with the Planning Manager. Providing technical support to the Project Planner. Review the Project Programme. Ensure tender response review gateways are achieved. Implement mitigation measures when there is programme slip, to ensure subsequent milestones are met.

    Issue, Manage and respond to Technical Queries to and from Client and suppliers Where an alternative or non-compliant proposal is desirable and there is sufficient time, Devise a strategy and ensure that it is produced in parallel with the proposal.

    He will contribute to and manage the production of all documents, programmes, drawings, plans, proposed methods and risk assessments for the alternative submission.


    They offer and operate a hybrid working based on business case decisions - 3 days in the office and 2 at home on a traditional week but client meetings, site visits etc.

    need to be factored in so its a flexible target.


    Opportunities like this are rare and would suit someone with experience of working within a preconstruction team on framework bids so if you are looking to move up to a national brand or are frustrated at a Tier 1, regional contractor or a civil engineering business now is the time to make the move to a business going places.
