Bid Manager Central London Salary: Up to £65,000 depending on experience Location: Central London Type: Permanent Working environment: Office-based The Opportunity We're working with an exciting and growing main contractor based in Central London who are looking to bring an experienced Bid Manager into the team. This is a great opportunity for someone with a few years' experience in bids/tenders who wants to take ownership of the process and have a genuine impact within a business that is on an upward trajectory. You'll be joining a company that has built a really strong team and culture, with ambitious plans for continued growth. It's not a huge corporate environment where you'll become one of 20 people doing the same job, you'll have visibility, responsibility and the opportunity to shape how the business approaches its bids. About the Business The company is an established main contractor with a strong and growing pipeline across London. They have developed a reputation for delivering quality projects and building long-standing relationships with their clients and supply chain. The business is continuing to grow, with an exciting pipeline of work and further expansion planned. The culture is a big part of what makes the company attractive. The team is genuinely close-knit and social, with people who have been with the business for a number of years. They actually make a point of enjoying themselves too; monthly office socials with beers, wine, pizza and plenty of opportunities for the team to get together. It's a business where people know each other, senior management is accessible and your contribution is noticed. The Role As Bid Manager, you'll take ownership of the tender process from initial opportunity through to submission, working closely with the senior management, commercial, pre-construction and operational teams. You'll be responsible for: Managing the end-to-end bid process from PQQ through to final submission Reviewing incoming tender opportunities and assessing suitability Coordinating bid/no-bid processes Managing tender programmes and ensuring key deadlines are met Reviewing tender documents, specifications and employer's requirements Coordinating information and contributions from internal teams and external consultants Working closely with Estimating and Commercial teams Preparing and managing tender submissions Producing high-quality written responses and technical submissions Coordinating method statements, programmes, logistics proposals and supporting information Managing the bid library and ensuring information is accurate and up to date Maintaining a strong understanding of the company's capabilities, previous projects and differentiators Identifying opportunities to improve the quality and efficiency of the bidding process Attending tender interviews and presentations where required Supporting the business development team with client-facing material Maintaining strong relationships with clients, consultants and supply chain partners Helping to develop and continually improve the company's bid strategy and processes What We're Looking For We're ideally looking for someone with a few years of experience within a Bid Manager / Bid Coordinator / Senior Bid Coordinator position within construction. You don't need to have spent 15 years doing bids. We're more interested in someone who has a good understanding of construction tenders and is ready to take the next step. You should have: Experience within a construction or main contractor environment Strong understanding of the tender process Excellent written and verbal communication skills Strong attention to detail Ability to manage multiple bids and deadlines simultaneously Confidence coordinating input from multiple departments Good commercial awareness Excellent Microsoft Office skills A proactive approach and ability to work independently The confidence to communicate with senior stakeholders Main contractor experience would be particularly advantageous. Why Join? This is a genuine opportunity to join a business that is growing and have a say in how the bid function develops. You'll have the freedom to bring ideas, improve processes and build on what's already there rather than simply inheriting a rigid corporate system. The business has a fantastic team culture, with a very social environment and people who genuinely enjoy working together. There's also plenty of opportunity for progression as the company continues to grow, meaning the person joining now has the chance to grow with the business rather than joining an already-established structure with limited room to move. If you're a Bid Coordinator or Bid Manager with a few years' construction experience and you're looking for a business where you can take ownership, develop and grow alongside an ambitious team, we'd be keen to hear from you!

Instead, you'll be responsible for ensuring sustainability is embedded into bids from the very beginning, helping shape winning tender submissions for major Rail and Civil Engineering projects across the UK. The role has been created because the Head of Environment has been carrying out this function herself, consistently producing exceptional tender submissions and achieving maximum evaluation scores. Due to continued business growth, they now want someone dedicated to this area who can build the function and make it their own. This is a hybrid role, typically 3 days in the office / 2 days working from home , subject to workload and business requirements Why this role is different This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys the commercial side of environmental management. Rather than spending your time on site managing compliance, you'll become a key member of large bid teams, influencing projects before they're won. You'll work closely with estimators, bid managers, operational teams and technical specialists to develop sustainability strategies that genuinely add value and help secure work. Every bid is different. Success comes from understanding each client individually, interpreting what they're asking for, identifying what environmental commitments will score highly, forecasting the environmental resource required and ensuring those costs are incorporated correctly into the tender. It's a role that combines environmental expertise with commercial thinking. In return the organisation will support you with accreditations and there are future opportunities to progress. The Ideal Background Our client is keen to attract someone from a construction, infrastructure or engineering environment where they already understand how major projects are delivered. This could include experience within: Rail Civil Engineering Construction Highways Energy Utilities Infrastructure The role would particularly suit someone looking to move away from a project or site-based environmental position into a more strategic, corporate function where they can influence projects nationally rather than delivering one project at a time. Previous bid experience would be advantageous but isn't essential if you have the right environmental background and commercial mindset. What They're Looking For Ideally you'll have: Environmental or Sustainability degree (or equivalent) Experience within construction, rail or major infrastructure Strong understanding of environmental legislation and sustainability principles Professional memberships such as IEMA / ISEP Practitioner, Full IMEA / ISEP Membership or Chartered Environmentalist are desirable but not essential.

This is a rare opportunity to move into one of the most commercially influential environmental roles within a major contractor. If you're currently an Environmental Advisor, Environmental Manager or Sustainability Manager working on projects and enjoy the strategic side of the role more than day-to-day compliance, this offers a chance to shape work before it's even won. You'll work on bids across multiple sectors, collaborate with senior stakeholders, and help secure nationally significant infrastructure projects. It's a newly created role with real visibility, where you'll have the opportunity to define the function, introduce new ideas, and become the go-to sustainability expert within the work-winning team Ganymede is committed to creating a diverse workforce and is an equal opportunities employer.
