Senior Bid Manager | Cambridge | Permanent | Principal Contractor
If you’ve ever:
• rewritten a “final version” at 11:47pm
• had six people “just adding one thing”
• watched a director suddenly care deeply about font sizes
• or translated complete waffle into something that might actually win work…
…you’ll probably understand this role.
Major contractor looking for a Senior Bid Manager to lead complex regional bids across education, healthcare, defence and major public sector projects.
This isn’t just colouring in submission documents and praying for the best.
They want someone who can:
• shape strategy
• pull together technical teams
• challenge weak answers
• manage deadlines properly
• and keep bids moving without everything descending into a group panic three days before submission
Projects range from regional work through to major schemes approaching £250m.
You’ll need proper construction bid experience, strong organisational skills and the ability to deal with multiple stakeholders who all think their section is the most important part of the tender.
(Usually after ignoring your emails for two weeks.)
The business itself is solid:
• strong framework presence
• repeat public sector work
• long-term pipeline
• good people internally
• grown-up environment
No “work hard/play hard” nonsense.
Just a good contractor that wins decent projects and wants someone sharp to help drive that forward.
Discreet conversation if of interest.
