Bid & Compliance Executive
Salary: £30,000 – £50,000 per annum (dependent on experience)
Location: Northamptonshire (remote / flexible, with occasional travel)
About the Business:
Our client is a specialist environmental advisory and delivery business focused on Biodiversity Net Gain (BNG) and natural capital solutions. They work alongside landowners, developers, local authorities, and infrastructure promoters to plan and deliver high-quality habitat banks and conservation covenant schemes. With mandatory BNG now embedded across the planning and infrastructure sectors, the business is growing quickly and building out its team to keep pace.
The Role:
This is a newly created, business-critical role for someone who can take ownership of the full tender process, from spotting opportunities through to submission, while also keeping the company's accreditations, corporate governance, and HR policies in order. You'll be the person making sure the business is positioned to compete for public and regulated-sector contracts, balancing hands-on bid writing with wider compliance oversight.

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
