Job description

At Reds10, we're transforming the construction industry through innovative offsite manufacturing and modern methods of construction. Working across Defence, Education, Justice and Healthcare sectors, we deliver high-quality, sustainable buildings faster, safer and more efficiently than traditional methods.

As our business continues to grow, we're looking for an organised, proactive and detail-focused Bid Coordinator to join our Bidding & Pre-Construction team.

This role can be based in either our London Bridge or our Slough office.

This is an exciting opportunity for someone who thrives on organisation, enjoys improving processes, and wants to play a key role in securing major projects across the UK.

Working closely with our Bid & Opportunity Lead, you'll be responsible for coordinating tender opportunities, managing procurement portals, overseeing compliance activities and supporting the delivery of high-quality bid submissions.

This is not primarily a bid-writing role. Instead, you'll become the driving force behind the systems, processes and information management that enable successful tender submissions.

You'll help ensure opportunities are identified quickly, deadlines are met, compliance requirements are managed effectively and valuable bidding knowledge is retained and accessible across the business.

Responsibilities

• Monitor procurement portals and shared bid inboxes daily
• Identify new tender opportunities, EOIs and framework competitions
• Maintain accurate records of opportunities and bid/no-bid decisions
• Coordinate opportunity reviews with internal stakeholders

• Maintain live bid trackers and submission schedules
• Coordinate bid meetings, actions and deadlines
• Monitor progress and highlight risks or delays
• Assist with submission planning and administration

• Prepare tender compliance checklists
• Coordinate collection of supporting information and evidence
• Ensure submissions meet client requirements and formatting standards
• Maintain accurate audit trails and submission records
• Support final tender uploads and submissions

• Support the creation of reusable bid content and case studies
• Improve systems, processes and business continuity arrangements
• Help drive efficiencies through technology and automation

About You

We're looking for someone who genuinely enjoys bringing structure and organisation to a fast-paced environment.

You'll be highly organised, proactive and confident managing multiple priorities while maintaining exceptional attention to detail.

Essential Skills & Experience

• Bid Coordinator, Tender Coordinator, Bid Administrator or similar experience
• Strong organisational and administrative skills
• Excellent attention to detail and accuracy
• Ability to manage multiple deadlines and priorities
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills
• Experience maintaining spreadsheets, trackers and document systems
• A proactive approach with a continuous improvement mindset

Desirable Experience

• Construction, infrastructure or public sector procurement experience
• Knowledge of procurement portals and e-tendering systems
• Experience supporting tender submissions and compliance processes
• Familiarity with SharePoint, Microsoft Lists or Power Automate
• Experience managing document libraries and knowledge systems

Don't worry if you don't tick every box. We're equally interested in candidates with strong organisational skills, a positive attitude and a willingness to learn.

Why Join Reds10?

This is a fantastic opportunity to join a growing and innovative business where you'll have real influence on how the bidding function develops.

You'll gain exposure to major UK construction projects while developing expertise in:

• Bid and tender management
• Public sector procurement
• Framework management
• Compliance and governance
• Knowledge management
• Process improvement and digital systems
• Commercial opportunity management

As the business continues to grow, there will be opportunities to progress into more senior bid coordination, bid management and framework management roles.

If you're highly organised, enjoy creating structure from complexity and want to play a key role in the success of a growing business, we'd love to hear from you.

Please note that this role will require Baseline Personnel Security Standard (BPSS) clearanceincluding a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check as part of our recruitment process.
