Bid Specialist – Melbourne

• Want to work with a dynamic team that strives for high performance.

We are the market leader in bid management consulting, helping clients with tenders, bids, proposals and submissions, as well as other complex documentation such as capability statements, information memoranda, award submissions and grant applications. Being an expert in this field fuses expertise in marketing strategy, buyer behaviour, relationship management, sales communications, storytelling and innovation. The work is strategic, technical and creative, and demands a sharp intellect and a client-focussed attitude.

Our client base is deep and broad, from top-tier blue-chip companies to start-ups and niche operators across almost every sector. Likewise, our projects are extremely diverse, but we are particularly renowned for our work in major and mega projects in construction, infrastructure and defence. In a single week, our team members might find themselves working on a tender relating to emergency helicopter services, sales collateral for a high-tech start-up, and an information memorandum for an agricultural fund.

You'll need to share our core values of reliability, brilliance, passion, persistence and tenacity, and you'll need a 'can do', 'whatever it takes', 'I've got this' attitude. We are looking for hard working, dedicated, 'boots and all' people who love a challenge and love to succeed.

Being recognised among Australia’s ‘best of the best’ workplaces is more than just an accolade; it reflects our dedication to creating a dynamic environment where our team members can truly thrive. For anyone joining our team, it means stepping into a place where your growth, ideas, and happiness are valued—because at Aurora Marketing, we’re determined to keep making that elixir of happiness for a long time to come.
