International Main Contractor currently in 11 Countries. Turning over circa £900 Million to £1.1 Billion as a Group. Key area of Success: Data Centers, Life Sciences, Manufacturing & Logistics. Projects ranging from £30-200 Million.

Are you an experienced Bid Writer that sees opportunities others don’t? Working in the UK head Office you will be pulling together integral information for a BID submission.

Working in liaison with the Lead Tender Manager, Estimation Manager & Global Head of Pre-construction. All these individuals are based in the Head Office near Slough – West London.

You will need to be based near the office to have a comfortable daily commute. You will be open to travel as and when needed to hit business needs and client wishes.

For a HIGHLY profitable business, they pride themselves on a relatively flat management structure. One ingredient of success is the turnaround time and ability to manage risk internally before making decisions. In this role, you will have regular coordination with the Board, so rest assured you will not be lost as a number within a PLC.

If you have an idea or strategy, this will be embraced. They are rewarding you to make decisions, be it right or wrong. Yes, they want to win every bid, but at present, they have a very healthy 61% WIN ratio, mainly due to the prequalification and time committed. They would prefer to pull out of a bid than make up numbers and be a rebound strategy for a client.

With the track record they have, an ethos they are very open with clients. This approach has led to numerous bids being negotiated, sole supplier or Early Contractor Involvement (ECI). This approach with clients has been appreciated, and with the ability to deliver, it has set them apart as we have seen certain so-called GLOBAL main Contractors go to the Wall!
