Are you a Bid Writer or Manager looking to work for a growing dynamic brand? My client is a large global 3PL offering Supply Chain solutions across Public and Private sector clients.
Reporting into the Senior Bid Manager, you will initially focus on the multi-billion pound public sector client, whilst also supporting an array of strategic / public sector bids.
The core purpose is to translate complex logistics, engineering, and digital solution designs into high-scoring, compliant, and compelling narrative responses. You will act as the lead pen for technical quality submissions, interviewing Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) to extract raw intelligence and turning it into a ‘Gold Standard’ submission that meets the rigorous requirements of strategic clients.

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.
Key Responsibilities:
- Content Creation: Draft, edit, and proofread high-quality technical responses. Ensure all narratives are articulate, concise, and persuasive.
- SME Extraction: Proactively interview and interrogate internal Subject Matter Experts (Operations, IT, HR, Supply Chain) to extract the technical detail required to answer complex questions.
- Compliance & Scoring: Analyse tender questions to break down requirements, ensuring every sentence contributes to the scoring methodology and full compliance with customer standards.
- Storyboarding: Lead storyboard sessions to structure answers before writing begins, ensuring the ‘Win Strategy’ and ‘Ghosting’ of competitors are embedded in the draft.
- Convert internal terminology into client-facing benefits.
- Version Control: Manage the rigorous document control required for high-security bids, ensuring security classification handling.
- Sector Insight: Incorporate knowledge of the sector landscapes into responses to demonstrate deep customer understanding.
