Head of Bids & Tenders

Shape Winning Bids. Influence Growth. Make Your Mark.

Are you an experienced Bid Writer or Tender Manager who thrives on winning work, influencing commercial outcomes, and being at the heart of business growth?

This is an opportunity to join a highly successful, fast-growing organisation operating within the construction, engineering, and infrastructure sectors. The business has built an outstanding reputation for delivering complex projects and is now looking for a commercially astute bid professional to take ownership of its tendering and procurement activities.

This is far more than a bid administration role. You'll have a genuine voice in strategy, work alongside senior leadership, and play a critical part in securing high-value projects across both public and private sector markets.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

  • High-impact role with direct influence on company growth
  • Lead complex and strategic bids from start to finish
  • Work closely with Commercial, Operations, Engineering and H&S teams
  • Variety of projects across a dynamic and growing portfolio
  • Opportunity to develop and enhance bid processes, content libraries and best practices
  • Strong career progression potential within an ambitious business
  • Flexible working arrangements available

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.
