Bid Writer Preston The Opportunity: A well-established, privately owned UK organisation operating across construction, facilities management and infrastructure is seeking an experienced Bid Writer to join its growing bid function. The successful candidate will play a key role in securing major public-sector and framework opportunities, turning complex technical and commercial information into compelling, compliant submissions. The role offers the opportunity to work on projects with tangible community impact across sectors including education, housing, highways and public facilities. Performance Objectives: Achieve a tender win rate of 70%+ by value within 12 months, producing high-quality, fully compliant PQQ, ITT and framework responses. Lead end-to-end bid production for 8–12 major opportunities annually, coordinating technical, commercial and operational contributors. Improve average bid quality scores by 15% year-on-year through strong win themes, relevant case studies and client-focused narratives. Develop and maintain a reusable library of 50+ high-quality method statements, CVs and social-value evidence, reducing future bid production time by approximately 20%. Identify and qualify two suitable public-sector or framework opportunities per quarter, aligned with organisational strategy and representing significant pipeline potential. Coach operational contributors to ensure 90% deliver first-draft content on time and to the required standard. Team & Working Environment: Report directly to the Bid Manager and join an experienced bid team. Access to CRM systems, tender portals, graphic design support and senior-level bid review. Primarily North West-based activity, with travel as required. Hybrid working is standard. Supportive environment with a strong focus on bid quality rather than high-volume production. Essential Experience & Qualifications: Proven track record of writing successful construction or FM tenders for public-sector clients, such as local authorities, healthcare, education or highways organisations. Ability to translate complex technical and commercial information into clear, persuasive and fully compliant bid narratives. Strong understanding of UK public procurement, including PAS 91, the Construction Playbook and social-value requirements. Experience coordinating contributions from multiple disciplines and facilitating structured bid reviews. Excellent written English, strong attention to detail and a consistent ability to meet demanding submission deadlines. Why Consider the Role: Opportunity to influence the growth of an established, privately owned organisation with a strong regional presence. Work on projects that have a visible and lasting impact on local communities. Collaborative, non-corporate culture where quality and expertise are valued. Genuine opportunity for progression into a Bid Manager position as the team and pipeline continue to grow. A role where the bids you develop translate directly into projects that are delivered on the ground. Ideal Candidate: This opportunity would suit an experienced Bid Writer / Bid Executive / Senior Bid Writer with a background in construction, facilities management or infrastructure, particularly someone accustomed to public-sector procurement and complex PQQ, ITT and framework submissions
