APPLY Job Description
Bid Writer - North / North East London
Join an established construction company with a strong, long-standing client base. This role offers stability, a collaborative culture, and the chance to directly influence the success of major bids.
This is a full time, on site position for the probation period, with hybrid working available afterwards. We are open to a range of experience levels and can offer £45,000 - £75,000 for the right person.
The Opportunity
You'll join a well-established preconstruction and bid team where your writing will shape high-quality, winning submissions. This suits someone who enjoys turning technical detail into clear, persuasive content, taking ownership of their work, and helping strengthen overall bid quality.
Key Responsibilities
- Produce professionally written tender submissions, proposals and presentation materials
- Research and gather information from technical, operational and commercial teams
- Edit, refine and proof content to ensure clarity, accuracy and impact
- Maintain a library of up-to-date bid content, case studies and supporting materials
- Support continuous improvement across bid processes and help ensure deadlines are met
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What We're Looking For
- Experience within the construction sector is essential - whether with a main contractor, subcontractor, architectural practice, engineering consultancy or a built environment consultancy
- Ideally 3+ years experience in a bid writing role
- Strong writing, editing and proofreading skills with the ability to create clear, engaging content
- Confidence working with multiple stakeholders and managing deadlines
- Experience producing bids for Local Authorities or frameworks is beneficial
- Proficiency in Microsoft Office; Adobe Suite or InDesign is an advantage
- Strong communicator with the ability to question, challenge and extract accurate information
- Degree in English, Communications, Business or similar is preferred but not essential
Why This Role Stands Out
- Highly established company with long-term relationships and repeat clients
- Supportive preconstruction environment with a close-knit and long-standing team
- Full visibility of the bid lifecycle with the autonomy to shape content quality
- Opportunity to work across a diverse range of construction projects
