A New Chapter: Join a Growing Leader

It is an incredibly exciting time to join PTSG Water Treatment. As a rapidly expanding leader in the water safety and treatment industry, we are setting new standards for excellence across the UK. With a portfolio spanning over 25,000 sites nationwide and a team of dedicated specialists operating across every sector, our growth is driven by a commitment to delivering faster, more innovative, and deeper solutions for our clients. We are not just expanding our footprint; we are evolving our capabilities and investing in the experts who make it happen. If you are looking to be part of a forward-thinking, industry-leading team where your contribution truly matters, we want you to be part of our journey.

What You'll Be Doing Here:

We are looking for a Bid Manager to join the PTSG Water team. In this role, you’ll take ownership of our bids from start to finish, from deciding which opportunities to go for, right through to submitting the final proposal and reviewing the feedback. You’ll work closely with our Business Development, Operations, and Commercial teams to make sure our bids are accurate, on time, and represent exactly what we can deliver for our clients.

  • Managing the end-to-end process for tenders, quotes, and contract renewals.
  • Writing and editing bid content so that it is clear, easy to read, and addresses what the client actually needs.
  • Keeping our bid pipeline and internal approvals running smoothly so deadlines are met.
  • Gathering information from our technical experts and turning it into clear, customer-focused responses.
  • Looking after our bid library to ensure our templates, case studies, and supporting documents are always up to date.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

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.
