We are proud of our achievements and our reputation for innovation, dynamism and excellence, built firmly on the commitment and dedication of each member of our team.

We are looking to expand our Work Winning team with a skilled and enthusiastic Bid Writer to be based in our London Paddington or Swindon Head Office. You will produce responses for PQQs and Tenders including unique responses, references, case studies, CVs (in liaison with Bid Coordinators) and project experience; and ensure all tender documentation is presented to a uniformly high standard by editing and proofreading submission documents, as well as coordinating and supporting in the production and finalisation of documents when required. The role will require you to provide feedback to the Head of Submissions, Bid Managers and Bid Coordinators on progress with responses and create the final publication, ensuring the bid is delivered to the client on time.

Please note: This role will be office based 5 days per week until you have successfully completed your probationary period when you can apply to work from home 1 day per week.

Within this role, you will be required to have a background or previous experience in journalism or writing. Technical knowledge of civil engineering/construction would also be beneficial. You will have a comprehensive understanding of how to formulate a technical response favourable (or beyond) to the clients' requirements and communicate this both in the written and visual spectrums, demonstrating a high level of competence in written English. You must be able to work collaboratively, setting and acting upon clear and realistic goals and objectives. The ability to use your own initiative, question assumptions and learn from and share experiences is also essential for this role.

We will provide a competitive salary and benefits (including pension and health care plan), accommodation allowance (if outside of a reasonable commuting distance) and access to outstanding training and career opportunities.
